Default What happened to the t-top company?

I've been calling Thompson AStro t-tops in Fl. Al. Their phone is no longer in service. Anyone out there know what's happening with them? I would like to order their t-tops for my vette; but because of my location I don't know of anywhere else off hand that makes that particular style. Any Ideas? :confused:

I hope they went broke! Very cheap product and no warranty whatsoever!

I agree that thier service and support was awful however I love the top and the way it looks on my car.
There warranty is kind of like this one
Man 1 "so does this piano come with a garintee?"
Man 2 " Sure I garintee its a piano"


It works good with a black car most people don't even know its clear untill they sit in side.

I would not recommend their 1 piece replacement tops. However, I sent them my broken glass tops and got a pair of really nice tops with acrylic instead of the glass. The frames were in excellent condition, they put all new hardware on them including all new weatherstripping. The acrylic is about 1/4 the weight of the glass ones and I am VERY HAPPY with my tops from them.
