Well Smoothine call today and said that my hardtop shipped via FedEx Freight. It should be here on Tuesday. As soon as the bodyshop gets around to painting it I will get some pics up for you guys to see.
Any chance you can run down there and take some pics of the actual production unit before paint? I'd be interested to see what it takes to get this thing street ready.
The hardtop has arrived - I had it shipped to my body shop as shipping to a business was cheaper. I got some quick pics.
Looks pretty good except for the very back under the window seems kind of thin. Some small stress cracks I guess from shipping. I hope putting the window in will help make it a little more sturdy.
the shop can't fit me in until May 23rd. So at that time I will test fit and have them paint and assemble. Would hope to have it back by the end of that week.
I just ordered the base top with the primer finish. The interior is just like a charcol carpet glued to the inside. However, you could upgrade that if that is what you want.
Once I get the top done and installed I will take pics and start a new thread and put a link to it in this one.
How sturdy does it feel? Are the latches just on the rear and across the top of the windshield?
I just snapped a few pics and had to get back to work. Once I get it home after paint in about 2 weeks I can get a better report. For now the only part that could be unsturdy is the thin strip below the window. It does have a 1 year warranty.
wait, don't tell me it doesn't come with glass LOL.
No but mine should have been shipped today... we shall see shortly...
The glass and rubber gaskets are in the box. If you ordered your top unfinished then it comes like that so you can get a good paint job on it and then put on the gaskets and window.
