    yes, all the windows will still function. it will have a removable center post. so when the windows are down it's a hardtop. windows up you can slide the post in and roll the windows up.

    That car looks great! The very tasteful chop really improves the lines of the car... looks to me like they should have built it that way to begin with. I can't wait to see it finished.

    That's cool! The upsweep at the back of the window opening reminds me of a '60 Ford Town Victoria fordor hardtop, was that what Steve got that from?

    I don't like moordoors- never have.

    I LOVE this one! I'd buy a moordoor if I could have one that looked like that!

    Fantastic job!

    the inner reinforcement is done. putting the drip rails back on.

    the front door top edges was made on the Pullmax. since it's going to be a hardtop the edges needed to be straight. there used to be a curve to for the vent glass and attachments.
