By the way here is a link to the contest site anyone that is willing to become a fan and post a good comment about my car would really help.

Default vertical door conversion

Unless you want to be flamed by every other CF memeber that has to put his two cents in , I would not use the term 'lambo'. My wife is still crying over the coals she was raked over.

But look and find that there are more of the Vertical Door hinge kits for sale than any other vertical hinge kits? ( see C5 For Sale topic section)

GT Factory no longer produces a kit $1800http://forums.corvetteforum.com/c5-p...mbo-doors.html & LSD vertical door kits run $2300 ( one gas piston design) and require door and fender brkt support(s) triming .http://www.lsd-doors.de/us/http://www.stillen.com/product.asp?i...R01&c=EX&m=all LSD is a Germany company I believe. This Vette has an LSD vertical door kit [IMG]

Dream Car vertical doors kits are American made with two gas rams on each side. Produced with 3/8 and 1/2 thick steel. Cost is $1350[IMG][/IMG]


The Dream Car hinges install video can be seen athttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

Dream car customs in Savannah georgia makes the best, easiest to install and at a reasonable price.
Go to you-tube to see their videos.

I sold my Vertical doors inc set and I am getting these

There are several companies making these but most hinges require cutting and modifying fenders. These are true BOLT ON....

Th GT Factory Kit which is called Diablo is no longer marketed by GT Factory. VErticle Doors put a stop to them for come copy issues. You will notice Verticle Doors kits are available on GT Factory Website as well.

The Dream Car kit is a nice kit. I myself do not like how they do not roll up and over the fenders like the LSD Verticle Door and GT kits do.


I am having my own kit designed for me now. It is a long ways from being ready but the project goal is to build a nice quality sturdy kit to withstand the wind issues(gt factory kit is fine for me with wind) easy install and a price tag around 800.00 to make this affordable and no vette tax.

I will also have the shaved door handle kits ready soon as well. These will allow you to remove or keep the door handles and pop them open with a remote. Next step will be to have them motorized if you would want it.
