Kathi
Thank you for allowing me to use some of your photos, it gets boring using the same car (mine) over and over.
Here is what I came up with.
2 door, 2 seater convertible.
Regards
Mike

.... and lowered a little more!
I like the windscreen - very reminiscent of early Vettes and T-birds.
But Mike - my foxtail! Where's my foxtail!

OK - Sectioned and lowered a bit with a foxtail.
And yes, I used the windscreen from a 1957 Thunderbird.

Yeesss, I do like that, It makes one wonder how many they would have sold if they built them like that from factory.
Cut a body up, get it straight, put it on vette chassis , like EFIJY, cruise till the wheels fall off

You did a good job on that creation....almost looks factory.
Love the section. Those front guards are huge!! The bonnet needs to be welded up and a smaller forward opening 'hood' cut into it.

Thanks All
Should probably have put a cowl vent but if the "hood" was shortened it might be a little difficult to fit a big block, say a 454 into it.
Anyone game to build one?
Cut up an old shell, weld a frame to the floor pan for strength, one of those V6 conversions front end and a Jag rear end. Sounds easy.

If you haven't grown up by 50, you don't have to.
