Today was supposed to be a really warm day so I decided that was perfect roof pulling weather.

I did all of the prep and removed all of the bolts holding the roof on.


Because it was so warm after that the roof came right up and off minimum fuss.


I cleaned up all of the goop Then applied more strips of goop



I slapped the new roof on

Did you swap roofs because you wanted to get rid of the sunroof?

I did the opposite with my '84 last year. I never bother taking the sunroof panel out/off in any of my Fieros while driving, but I've always appreciated the added ventilation of an open sunroof in a car with such a small cab.

Every single car with T-Tops or Sunroofs I have ever owned leak. My wife's main car has a leaky sunroof and she didn't want to deal with it on the Fiero.
The interior of this car is already trashed from the leaky sun roof we will be gutting the interior and swapping with good spares i have.

I an hoping we are running out of hot days in this year so I decided today was the day. Plus the longer the hard top sat the more chance it would get busted.
