Right side scoop is glassed in on the outside with the Mustang scoop installed.  Here is another shot of the scoop. You can see we have some plans for the inside rear (seat!) area.  |

The window id trimmed & screwed it to hold it. It's elec back window so will get some fresh air. The roof sits about 1.5" higher in the back now.  Inside view  As you can see, we have a few addition plans for the rear section. |

Still working on the the T-top setup. The stock roof is about 2.5" to wide, so have cut it in half, easier to work on now. Using the cutoff wheel (alot of them) & a saw-all, been cutting away bit by bit. Don't want to cut to much & there's a lot of metal braces inside to cut as will. The back is close, trimmed the Del Sol top section back & the 280ZX roof. The roof now slides onto the red part between the roof & bracing. Also trimmed the A pillar (WS post) & the B pillar to the bottom edge of the T-top roof glass  The front still need alot of trimming on the roof & Bradley WS frame to get it to fit just right. You can see some of the heavy bracing on the front picture.  |

 Still kicking a few ideas around. This is a after market fiberglass rear bumper I got for a section of the Trike body I'm building with the Honda Del Sol tail lights. It was damaged & got it for $10.00. Make some quick repairs to see how it would look on the GT

Just say no Skip!!! It changes the lines of the bradley too much in my opinion!!! the bottom 10"-12" would look nice if you just used the center 4' section. I would have to use the original upsweep on the tail though if not it's gonna start looking like an ordinary ricer from the back!!!

You must enjoy itchy fingers more than I do. I can wear 3 sets of gloves while glassing and still end up with fibers and resin on/in my hands. Of course I always have to touch things to see if the resin has set yet. Cool idea with the tee tops but I have to ask, how you will get in the car? Remove then reinstall the top? The window would be a bit interesting to slither through.

Trap doors in the floor pans.

and come up through the floor!!

Won't be using the rear bumper, went on the Goldwing GL1500 body that I'm completely redoing the rear section of.
Good "?"
"Cool idea with the tee tops but I have to ask, how you will get in the car?"
Haven't thought of that, it's what my friend want.
"You guys are giving SKIP20 to many ideas....... ;D"
Hey, I can always use idea so I don't have to use my brain that much.
There is NO BAD idea, may not use it, but fun to see.

In that case Skip why not make the top hinge with the side attached and the bottom roll up a track!! Would take some geometry but would look pretty cool. The vent window system like the stalker gt has would actually make it more enjoyable to ride in and you could always make the side glass removable too!!

Bad news, WebShot.com ( my picture storage ) is closing down in Dec.
They are changing over to Smile.com & will be charging for the storage.
This means all of the pictures on this post may be removed.
I have been able to down load all of them, but they are messed up & not in order or folders.
