Red 88 GT, CJB, 5 speed grey interior. Had it for about 5 years, pretty beat up when I got it, but drove well. Currently apart in the garage, getting 3.4 TDC/F40, and a Fino/Finale kit.

I have a non-CJB 88 t-top. Are we counting those?

They built 1252 and today there may be 1600 88 T tops.
Now I am joking but I would imagine most are still on the road and many that are not the tops have found their way to other cars.
T tops are not as rare as you may think as the Cars and Concepts Dealer installs were in great numbers from 84-91. Keep in mind they kept installing them even after the car was gone.
There should be a registry for all the tops and you can split off the CJB in a separate group. They were all made by the same company with only one part different and even many of the dealer installed option kits were done at the same plant as the CJB cars. I know many like to play the CJB cars are so different but they have no issue using the kit parts when they need replacements with no issue.
Here is my thinking. The good side affect to this is if you could document how many T Top cars CJB and Dealer Optioned are still on the road it may catch someone's attention to make gaskets and some other replacement parts we could use. If people look at just see the 1200+ that were CJB they will never make parts. There is strength in numbers.
Keep in mind I was told there were over 8,000 T tops made by the gentleman that was in charge of the program and later bought out the T tops division from Cars and Concepts. He said most went to the Fiero and Fiero option but many went to Kit Cars some were broken up for parts. Yes many went to warranty for their parts and were never sold.

Hey Kelvin, How the heck are you? Haven't seen you post in a while. Or maybe I've been away myself?

JScott! All is well, I've been more of a lurker these past few years - from time to time I pop in to see what's going on.... I still have your interior to transplant into my car someday. Amazing that we've been on this forum since 2001!

This thread got me thinking about creating a special T-Top class for Daytona this year. I wonder if we could draw in enough to make it worth while. Hmmmm.
