Got the nod from the engineer the other day after he slide up and check the top bar angles.
So now to weld it up.

Thinking of doing flush mounted glass for rear window and front screen.
Mocked up the rear this afternoon.

Have anyone considered this and if so did you go forward ?

Looks like it would be a lot of work .............

Agree,

That would be a roof chop indeed, or new glass which would probably not suit as it would be bigger looking.

New glass is $$$$$$$$$$$$$$ , I have looked into it and its the primary reason the 2 door isnt getting chopped .....

I mocked up the front windscreen but not liking what I see.
A large gap at the top would need to be filled so it is on the backburner for now.
Pushed the sedan out of the shed and wrapped it up as Ammo's ute is back.

A minor chop of 40 mm, I could get away with standard front and rear.
Side window glass no issue as flat but the rear triangular glass would be custom.
I have custom cut glass in Ammo's ute as I took out the vents but that took a couple of goes to get it right.
The chop would involve a lot of panel work and would hardly be noticable.
I have time to consider what I will do while I assemble Ammo's ute.

Cheers,
Roger
