I am just wondering if people have seen his Coupe convertable in the modified section.

I would love to do that and I don't mean to be silly but I would like to do that and can afford it.

What is involved? Do You have to pass it through to make it Legal? how much would it cost?

Can anyone give me the basic or lengthy Lowdown???
Please I am real interested.

Doc

not an expert but, with any top chop youd need to make sure theres a heap of reinforcing to make up for the loss of structural integrity id say...

had to get mine engineered for the rear window pillar removal. they did torsional rigidity testing and calcs and it set me back 700 or so all up.
