Title: Strange top
Post by: Maxduty on July 22, 2004, 01:05:03 PM

I wonder if anybody can tell me anything about a Sammi top I have. It is a 2 piece hardtop but the back is a lifting lid like a toneau cover and the back window is right behind the seats and has a slider in it. Any info?

Very similar, but it's a hardtop with a lifting cover and a rear sliding window.

I've got a guy that says he'll give me 150 for it, but I'm not really sure what they're worth.

I think I would definetly be a checkwriter for one of those tops for my Sammi.  If it's in good condition I'd cough up a couple more bucks.  Like brace said...post a pic.

Yep... guy down the street bought a similar top for $700... and was happy to find the bargain.

(I wish they made them for the 94 'Kick.)

The problem with making them for the Kick is the rear seatbelt towers  :-/

Yeah... but it seems to be the back window part that the makers can't figure out. (The 95 and later must have a different style mount???)

For the '94, you can get 2 of the 3 pieces. Some day I'll have to see what's different on the 95+.

It shouldn't be that difficult to make the whole thing out of fiberglass...it would look ridiculous with the seat belt towers though...of course you could just make them uprights for a rear wing ;)
