I was browsing e-bay today and found an auction for a good looking hard top for cheap! I'm having trouble with the link, so here it is:

Even with the shipping, this is (currently) much less than most tops I see on e-bay. If you could pick it up, it would be that much better. If it was closer, I would buy for that price and pick up and resell.
I'm not really looking, but for someone who is, this might be a great deal!!
Oops, I just noticed "Reserve Not Met." Not sure how high you'd need to go to get this one.
Regardless, Good luck and happy bidding!
I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

Doesn't appear to have the center lock pin that goes thru the deck, which limits the years it will actually fit properly on.
It also doesn't have the stainless corner trim on the very rear corners...not all years did, but I can't recall off-hand which years did.
It does appear to be in good condition, from the pics.

I noticed that it didn't have that center pin. Since my car didn't come with a hard top, that would have made it great for my car!

Mine has the center pin,and the stainless tips on it and i have a 75 .On a personal note they look nice on the car ,but putting it on and off and storing it is a pain in the butt.If I had a garage I would leave mine off.

Vette(s): 1972 conv., sunfire yellow, blk interior, blk vinyl and convertible top. Off frame restoration with American Speed 383 stroker engine producing 500hp plus a 200hp NOS system. MSD ignition. Hooker super competition headers with chambered exhaust.
I could be wrong but I don't think the bidding will go too much higher unless it's a local pick-up. Even at the current bid of $355 plus $250 shipping, you're looking at $600. Add $300 for a weather stripping kit and you're at the value of the top. A friend of mine just bought one in excellent condition last week for $600.
