Soft Tonneau Cover

[gsarvey]

I just bought a 2002 Thunderbird. Does anyone know where I might be able to buy a soft tonneau cover for it? The tonneau I have in mind is a full cockpit cover, common for MG's and Austin Healeys, with a zipper down the middle.

I believe thunderbird concepts have them

The soft cover sold by Ford and Thunderbird Concepts is a "boot cover". A Tonneau Cover is a cover that covers the entire cockpit. Tonneau covers for British cars had zippers down the middle allowing one to unzip one side and drive the car with the passenger side covered. The 1965 Austion Healey I bought new came with both a "boot cover" and a "tonneau cover". What I want is the Tonneau for my 2002 T-bird.

To the best of my knowledge, no one sells what you want for the new bird. There is a cockpit cover but that's only to cover i when you leave the car, and the top is down.
I looked at it and possibly a good "top" maker could modify it for you by cutting off the portion that goes over the windshield and adding snaps to it, and the car, front and back. Cost may be prohibitive though.
