Hello,
I have a bit of a quandry, i have a 68 Camaro and need a roof brace kit, but i only need the center cross piece
would that be the same piece in a 69 roof brace kit?, i mean could i use the cross piece out of a 69 roof brace kit for a 68 car being as it's the same roof skin for all 3 years 67-69? only the shipping on the 69 kit is cheaper to th UK, it's annoying that they don't sell the parts seperatey but hey.
Or if anyone has a roof brace they need to get rid off :mrgreen:
The roof had a sunroof cut into it in it's past :shock: and later filled in with all sorts of stuff, it now has a brand new roof skin but no brace as that was chopped out to make way for the sunroof i imagine.

Thanks

Pete

Why do you need the brace?

I have often thought of removing Butch's to save all that weight high up!

Haven't done so yet though!

Really?, ok. I thought the roofskin might vibrate a bit, or if i had a really fat cat sitting on the roof didn't want it to bend :lol:

I'll need something to fix the interior dome light to, in that case I'll prob just get the bodyshop to make something up to go in place.
cheapest i seen is on ebay for $106, but shipping is around $400 to the uk and i dont think it's worth it really.
Thanks mate, I think I made my mind up about that now. :thumbup:
