Excellent build so far and they're not even half way done. All the other rides they've done are pretty impressive also. Those rears look about 14" wide. Later.
That's the only thing I dislike about my current thirdgen, the Hardtop, but with teh Turbo Buick I didn't wanna take any chances.
I was thinking about copying Troy with the conversion to a hard top, I emailed them to see if a roll cage is necessary due to all the cutting involved.
T-tops aren't all they're made out to be, sure it's nice for a sunny day, but I've heard about a couple guys completely shattering the tops when they launched a little too hard at the track.
I guess it all comes down to personal opinions, but hardtops are nice.
I'm not here to knock anything. T-tops, gutting the sheetmetal inside, etc. But I give credit where its due. This is awesome the amount of skill needed to pull something like this off is crazy. I think its cool that a big name shop is taking the time for a third gen. We should if anything acknowledge the skill and imagination that is involved in something like this. Granted some of us here knock the ideas in this build, but we all haven't seen the finished product. I myself will keep an eye on this one. Can't wait to see the finished product.

Same with me, I love the idea of the coupe, and the interesting metal work in the back, covering the rear.
Makes me want to cut that big "hump" if you'd call it that, out of the back. I'll turn my Third Gen into a grocery getter with more cargo space than a Tahoe!
I realize it the flares were just a silver painted cardboard mockup , but I hope their a bit more tastefully done than that . The rocker extensions are amazing , it goes really well with the 3 gen body style and might theee only version other than stock I just might like when all is said n done . With that speaking , the metal work on that car is phenomenal . Hope it turns out as good as the potential that lurks .
