I also added a hardtop this fall -- local dealership was selling used tops for $499, so I couldn't pass that deal up.

I think you'll like it. Changes the lines of the car & makes it much quieter and coupe-like inside.

As far as storage goes... I built a hoist using some wood, pipe insulation, pulleys, sheet metal, rubber pads, and rope purchased at Home Depot. Now I can lift the top on & off by myself and when not in use it hangs out of harm's way. If you are interested in doing the same, let me know and I can snap some pics. It's nothing fancy, but it works.
