Re: roadster progress

So,

Is it a full time vert, or do you have a top for it too? Id like to also ask did you do a body drop on the truck or are those seats just way up there?

Interesting project. How do you like those hinges (baer's?) I would really like to see a c10 67-72 with suicide doors. Anyone got a pic?

Bill

Re: roadster progress
