Re: Roadster Project
That one looks very good too. Notice the hood ridge integrated into the cowl and the cowl smoothed into the windshield frame? And a flush mount windshield. Wow, alot of work went into that area alone.

Re: Roadster Project
Based on your fab skills I think you could pull something off like this...

Re: Roadster Project
Yeah, I think it's a bit too much. I do like the hood treatment though.

Re: Roadster Project
Under the hood...LOL, just kidding. I wasnt able to take them yet because my hoods being used as a work bench. Soon, I will have them
I will also have pics of the arm rests which are fabbed in from the back seat to the front doors. Should be super sweet. And the rear trunk lid and I want to do those head rests that look like tear drops in the rear trunk. Kinda follows the whole roadster theme...wadda ya think. ( kinda afraid to ask again)

I always liked the mini roll bar thing behind the driver like the cobras had. But they don't have a back seat. Hey wait, wonder what a blazer would look like shortened some more and losing the back seat?

Re: Roadster Project
I need some front seats to make the molded-in arm rests, but want to get them "frame only". Anyone know where one might find a decent selection?
