Suggestion?

I know everyone is busy with their own projects, but I thought I would suggest some one do some not-supra bodies going from 79-present if you include the FT-1 concept body. Also I thought it interesting that no one has made a legitimate "Targa/T-Top" fixture seeing as it was an extremely popular option in the 70s and 80s. I bet there is an issue with doing something like that such as you cant get the edge of the fiture to meet up with the edge of the body or something like that, but if it is possible I would really like to see it. Also I love Supras, hence the suggestions

For the t-top, the best solution now is to use Felgen's popup headlights, and then a piece of black trim (those in vents) to fill the space between it and the door. Felgen is working on new sunroofs, so it might be worth asking if he's got a t-top planned for that.

HUH, that is very creative. In that case you would suggest just running black trim from one side to the other to do a Targa?

Not quite, but to use the popup headlights to make the targa panels, and if they don't line up perfectly with the door, to use black trim to fill the gap. Here's an example where it's supposed to be gullwing doors, but it's the same effect, just wider for the targa:
