Hi, as you all know - I have a Electra -68 convertible who need like a full body restoration... due to alot of ugly rust-repairs.. But its hard to find a convertible project car, it's mutch more easy to find a hartop.. In short terms: Will it be hard, to take the Convertible parts and place on the nice HT body, and the HT roof on the Convertible body... (= one nice convertible, one ugly hardtop - but two running cars, and alot less work, insted of move everything else seperate... fenders,floor,etcetc.) This can't be all to rare project? making a HT to a Convertible? Thanks! :TU:
I've seen the local body shop do it twice, he specializes in restorations. He did it to a Caddy, I dont know what year, and a 54 Chev. Cutting up the hardtop and convertable, welding the convertable pieces into the hard top. Looked tricky, there was no margin for error. :grin: Bruce
CyberT, Can you add your first name to your signature line?? Also, you are making more work than you need. Find a nice convertible and buy it....much easier and nicer.
Here is a nice car: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Buic...iewItemQQcategoryZ6144QQitemZ4607386283QQrdZ1
