      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      Dammit, I thought I'd be the first person to do it.

      I love me some sunroofs, so I'm definitely getting on installed in the Nova.

      I don't think thats a good idea. But in the end, it's your car.

      Bah to the naysayers! I say weld in a moonroof from modern car. It will need to be from a larger car though. We have had two 1990s Pontiac Bonnevilles, and the moonroof worked very nicely.

      I've heard of factory roofs in First Gens that were manufactured overseas. Doesn't look too bad. Check out this link:

      But why? Cadillac used them in the late 60's and the Hurst Pontiac GPs had them...

      Anyway, I still say do it, but do it RIGHT!!!

      it was just an idea, i really dont want to cut the roof of my 69, thx for the pics of that 67 with the sunroof, the idea of having tubes to collect the water pretty much killed the idea, but its not out of the idea box yet. maybe a plow next? or awd and a plow, lol
