That doesn't mean its a good idea... Looks like they cut right through the major stiffening agents in the roof.

As said above I think T-tops is about the best you could do without totally re engineering the car.

I would love a targa top in it, but that's about as far as I would be willing to go. I really loved my '83 Z-28 with the "Simon and Simon" targa top. Poor thing ended its life when it was rear-ended, pushed into a trash truck and literally folded up about 6 inches underneath where those roof supports should have been. I still toy with buying one and taking the torch to it.
