Default Storing a hardtop

Do you guys have the hardtop stand? How much was it? Any pics of it? How about your top being stored? How much space does it take up?

A lot of hardtop questions lately. You should do a search where a member build a hardtop stand using PVC pipes. All the parts cost less than $50 from your local Home Depot. Its stored vertically with the glass end on the top. It does take up a lot of space in the garage. The best thing is to install a pulley system if your garage can accomodate one. Xviper did a writeup with pics.

A hoist will require a tall ceiling, something most garages don't have. Be sure you will have clearance under the hardtop for when you drive under it with the soft top up.
