The Sundowner Corvette has a "removable" hardtop that has been bolted down.

Just sitting here in Pahrump, slowly melting away, and thinking about possible
future updates to the Sunbeam. The sunbeams were available with an optional
and removeable hard top. So, I am wondering how that plays into the modified
sports class. And then how in the heck would you attach one so that it meets
tech safety needs for easy entry and egress and other safety considerations.
Could such a top be chopped without violating a rule for the car body or other
little known condition? Now before anbody goes beserk (tiger owners, rules
makers, inspectors, etc), this is only a topic for discussion. I do not have a
hard top, nor do I know where I could get one that could be "chopped". Or
anything else. Just for fun thnking right now. But I am interested in thoughts
about how th eheck one could attach a removeable top such that it could be
opened for entry and egress easily. I have no clue as to how to even approach
that. Thoughts? Comments? Madness? mayf
