Well finding a used one can be a hassle, but you'll find them cheaper this way.

If you want a nice new one you can get it from Smooth Line - www.smoothline.com
They aren't cheap and shipping is a bit (which should be obvious as it it a very large item).

Good luck.

I know that there are a few used hardtops at Aspen Import Autos in Denver,...but that's a long way from St Louis.
Best of luck with your search!

Hey Cam

Jimmy here, im in k-wood des peres.
Let me know how the hard top turns out. I was thinking the same thing for my 80'. Love to see it in person.

Seems like there are quite a few StL 124's on here...seemingly more active members than other towns. we really need to have a spider roundup. It would really be cool to see all these StL 124 take over a parking lot.

I'd like to see how the hardtop looks in person also. I didn't even know they made one until recently. I thought about trying to make my own. Not now though. I'm just across the river from St Louis in Granite City, IL. If anyone has a used one for sale and the price is right I just may be interested.

I've got a couple of hardtops. One factory Pininfarina that fits an '80, and one (I think) Smoothline that I never tried to fit to my '80s. It may not fit an '80, I don't know.
The Pinin is in very good condition but is missing the side latches. I have new weatherstrippiing for it.
The other top is in good condition but has no headliner. It is much lighter than the Pinin top. I always though it looked like the top the Abarth Spiders used, maybe???
They are in central Illinois and I am not interested in shipping them.
