Default Not finished yet

i haven't assebled the roof yet. i keep it the garage when it rains for now. i would expect couple of drops, but i can live with it. we ll see how it turns out. no doubt that it's fun. i had 93 300zxTT before, and i missed the targa top so bad. i planned to do it last year, then i lost my license. it drifts better and stiffer. i didn't hesitate at all when i started hacking the roof, unlike all my friends. the size of the open space is bigger than supra's. tell u what though, this is labor intensive. i'm thinking me and Chris can finish a project like this in 3-4 days. But we r not sure if we wanna do this again. lol.

Hazy area around where the roof was - looks like an attempt to reproduce the ground (grass and sidewalk). Definitely need closer pics / different angles to make sure its not photoshopped.

i m doing this with Chris n Matt at RX motorsports in denver. It handles way better because we welded 5' steel bars around the frame. i should finish this by next week. and i ll post some more pics. after mine is done, i ll give u guys discounted price if anyone wants.

Hopefully we here in CO will get to see the car. Where did you put the steel bars?

I'm very curious about this project and can't wait to see more close up pics and update reads.

Looks great. I'd love to see it sometime in person as I'm in Denver. I REALLY WOULD.

If the price was right I'd probaly consider going targa. Where do you store the 'roof piece' anyways in the car? PM me a price.
