"Car is converted into a targa top, much like the newer corvettes, car comes with top, but top needs to be finished... "
What I'm woundering about is the needs to be finished part. Which I guess means I cut the top off now yu need to finish it.
That car "may" be fast but is shure looks like heII.

i have to disagree - - after hacking off one of the main structural points to the body, every little bit will help hold the thing together.

Yeah i guess thats true, I was refering to being under 12.0. That looks like a good reason to nor do that to our cars cause i know i dont want that big a roll cage in my car

Its actually not all that hard. The worst part is making a new top for it. Ive got mine all planned out and I know how to go about doing it. Theres even been a couple mag articles on how to do it.

Wow...that just looks like ***. Not the targa top, but the rust-red colored roll cage. You would think that he could have found a way to blend the cage a little better...maybe run it along the edge of the windshield and the back half of the roof or something....

Something to notice about that car... the 8th didget appears to be an "8" which would indicate the 350 TPI, WHY oh WHY would they put a TBI manifold on the car... 13500 miles??? YEAH, right, and with an engine that dirty??? I think that is one hack up car I also notice that the engine is RED, and the firewall is RED, it looks to me like this car has more like 213500 on it...
NOT for me... This guy looks like he started about 3 different projects on this thing and could not complete any of them...
He probably needs the money for what appears to be a blue Datsun (Could be a Rustang II)...

That is not the factory motor. And yes I think you are right, he cut the roof and didn't go a step farther!! I would be very afraid of that car!!!

real piece right there, definately seems like an....oops, cut a little too much, better sell the **** fast. Not only do those corvette rims look like a$$ on a camaro, personally i think they look like a$$ on a vette! too "hubcap-like" for me. And for 13,500 miles, 12,500 miles of them must have been spent driving through tar pits in california for the engine compartment to get that filthy, and what really kicks my tobaggon, is the fact that the bids are up to like 3,500 bucks! hell tell these people bidding i've got a bridge in brooklyn i want to sell them.

yes that is one pathetic car, though their is one cool thing about it in my opinon which is the ground effects that are molded that is really nice looking.. the only problem is he only did it to the side gfx and not the front or back.
