Re: 350 | T-Tops | Missouri
You will never find a factory L98(350) car with T-Tops... well I take that back... you will find a few in the mid to late '80's.
I was lucky enough to buy my car already with a T-Top conversion! Springfield eh? My car is trailored over there quite often to meet with a few Springfield FBody guys and others from the area.

Re: 350 | T-Tops | Missouri
I'm starting to see that it may be a difficult find. I would be happy with a hard top too. Been looking for a couple months and this is wearing me out.

Re: 350 | T-Tops | Missouri
Almost all of the 350(L98's) you'll find are hardtop, good luck finding one in Missouri. My first one, I drove just past St. Louis into Illinois to get. This one, I actually did find in Kansas City... but the guy just moved here from Washington(state). My favorite 3rd Gen's are '91 - '92, but the near-by ones always seem to be beat up, but all the good ones are a good 3-5hour trip away.

I've found quite a few L98/T-top cars, but outside of Missouri. Way outside, lol. Think east or west coast, usually.

Re: 350 | T-Tops | Missouri
Hit up craigslist, and broaden your search to include Kansas City and St. Louis. Don't forget to also include Topeka, KS. You may hafta drive a bit to get a car, but that will really be your best bet. I am always searching craigslist just for grins and always find some good ones. Heck, bout a month ago, I bought a 1987 Trans Am GTA with a 350, hardtop for $2000. It needs a new driver's side fender and possibly a driver's door, but it's easily fixable. A good cleaning and she turned out to be a pretty decent car.
They are out there, just widen your search to include KC.

Re: 350 | T-Tops | Missouri
Oh definitely, everyday I search every state surrounding Missouri...... most of the good ones are either on the west or east coast. I'm just gonna have to pony up for a plane ticket.
