    Hi all, I've been searching on here but can't find any info on what's required to turn a 2door 50 Merc into a hardtop.
    Can anyone help me please?

    Cheers
    Carl

    Look up Rick Erickson of Extreme Kustoms in Wildomar, Ca- he has done many chopped, hardtop Merc coupes and even a couple of sedans and he knows how to do them. Not an easy task...
