Default Hard top removal

I have a 95 v6 car that I am trying to sell for a drag car or for parts. A guy emailed me for the roof panel cause he cracked his when putting in his roll cage. How do I do this without breaking it ?

Grip's T-top Conversion

This is a guide for converting a hardtop to ttops. Removal of the hard top should be similar for you, or at the very least, give you some ideas on how to do it.

That is a part you want to sell as a "you pull it" part. Same goes with the rear quaters. It is too easy to mess it up, this way you get paid either way.

Are you talking about the steel or the plastic piece that goes over the roof?

I assume the steel but how do you crack it putting in a roll cage?
