More Pictures;
The conversion is kicking into high gear. ACP is doing a great job. Widebody rear fenders, Widebody Rear fascia with molded in spoiler. Hardtop fitted up.
Still waiting on the replacement MCM hood to come.
then the front fenders and Tiger Shark can be fitted up.

Thanks, it's going to be Navy Blue with Silver accents.
Thanks Wayne, it's been a long time coming trying to get the look that I wanted but I feel really great knowing that I stuck it out and went the distance.
I could not be happier with my choice to have ACP do all of the work. Kerry has been great to work with and really took a leap of faith to help me with my project. I am truly blessedto have met and worked with Kerry.

WOW! Now that is what I call getting deep into the car!
I've seen a FRC converted to a convertible
I've seen a FRC given a targa
I've seen a a coupe converted to FRC
Now, all I'm missing is seeing a coupe converted to a convertible.
And I suppose the reverses, convertible made into a FRC, and convertible made into a coupe.

The FRC top is glued down on to the channel using urethane (rubber) adhesive.

Wish I could come down, but I am backed up in work until May. Busy time of the year for us CPA's. I am not a tax guy, but work for the banks and commercial finance corporations.
The worse the economy the busier I get. I'm normally home late on Friday's and out on Sunday afternoons to catch a flight.
Haven't had a job down in KC in a while, if I do I'll let you know.

Hey bro your car is looking great!!
I can hardly wait to see the new hood and tigershark front pics. That is going to be one awesome ride. Can't wait to drive it. After you of course!
Hope it is done in time for Carlisle.
