Only thing I don't like is the seatbelt things behind the back seats
Looks good otherwise IMO

I quiet like it, doesn't look that out of proportion. The B pillar looks abit odd, I would love to see hinges on the C pillar and reverse open the rear, like johnny dramas car on entourage.

im not a convertible fan at all, even less of of a fan of sedans chopped into convertibles, but i like that one. looks cool, and different.
agree too about the rear seat belt reel things, they need to be recessed or something. decent lumpy 351 in there and itl rock. |

i'm sure convertibles are fine for queensland, but here where we have two days of summer per year, it's not desirable. anyway, cool conversion, although a factory version would have been a two door ;)
