T-top
Partial convertible option
A T-top is a type of removable roof panel on a car, with a bar running down the center of the roof between two separate panels that can be taken out.
The design creates a T-shape when viewed from above, offering an open-air experience while maintaining structural support.
Popular on sports cars in the 1970s and 1980s: He drove his Camaro with the T-tops off.
