Hmmmm....I know exactly what you are talking about but I cant seem to remember the name of the company that does it. Let me think for a little bit and I'll figure it out.
Here are some pics from when they were set up at the Museum at the last Cruise-In. From what I remember, the conversion is something like $12,000-$15,000.
Its cool, but it seems a little high to me. For about 25% of that cost you could do something like a Caravaggio hard top.
