I was picturing the halfback on mine while I was giving it a bath today (first time in months...then it rained <shrug>) I'm very interested in the top :)

I love the design. 

Is the lid large enough to flip the rear seat up to use it as a rumble seat?  Has anybody seen a rumble seat?  Does anybody know what a rumble seat is?

Yep I know what a rumble seat is...no I don't think the lid opening looks wide enough to have the seat fit though...but I could be wrong there...having said that even if the seat fits you still wont have the seat belt towers with the back piece on.

 I'm watching the glass dry right now, for the trunk lid. Man this is going to be a slow process, I'm doing it by hand no fancy chop gun (spray fiberglass). I'm gonna have to do each piece twice to get it thick enough to use as a mold ::) ::)

 Ã‚ The back seat still fits in the upright position don't think it will fold down thou (can' tell until I put the finished piece on)
 Ã‚ I know what you mean by rumble seat, can't explain it either (must be the glass fumes ;D)


 Anybody close by I can call for a test fit and run when it's finished ( the track in the pics is a loaner and going bye bye soon) don't want to buy a junker just yet for guinie pig purposes.

 I guess that's what zaggy was talking about the R&D and development cost?

     You're getting the picture.......

     Started my own business back March 1.........you would be amazed how fast thousands of dollars disappear. Office equipment, Shop equipment, tools, computers, inventory, delivery vehicle.
And thats just open, then you ahve to pay for the premises, staff and all the other bills while you're trying to get some revenue in.....with a little luck I hope to be break even in a month or two from now......till then we are going to have fun.

Oh yeah forgot to mention........As the owner you don't get a paycheck till you make money.

Unfortunately, I'm not sure that will fit with my Calmini Sport Cage installed.  But I'm not sure.

Darn it!  It would ALMOST work!



"O" DUH. I never thought of that. dang it.

 Did I mention this is a slow process, I'm still on the mold for the trunk lid ( glass sets up fast when its hot out :()

 Hotrod, if you measure from the little lip to the cage one from the tailgate and one from the roof(same angle as the body) let me know. I'll bet it's pretty close, I'm interested to see what this thing will or will not fit in combo with other aftermarket parts.
