Re: T-Top conversion has begun

Yea do mine, do mine. Cuz there is no way I could take a saw to my own car. I would stand all weekend with a saw in my hand just staring at my car. saying to myself "Do i cut here? no no thats not right, its here, no no thats not right" and just do that same vicous circle over and over again.

Shoot! I love cutting the car. I think the most fun I had what putting the Cali rag top in my truck. It's like an adrenaline rush.

I need to find the picture of the Blazer we cut in half to stretch it 8 feet. That was fun!

Re: T-Top conversion has begun

I've come to the conclusion that i despise bondo. sanding it is a pain and i cant stand it

Re: T-Top conversion has begun

Haha, I've grown to hate it as well...but I'll tell you right now, be glad you didn't use fiberglass...it's a thousand times worse to sand... Bondo is cake in comparison.

Re: T-Top conversion has begun

Woot!!! Hell yeah!

You know, I've been thinking about getting adventurous and converting mine to a targa top.

Hmm... let me go look at that bad boy and see how hard it would be. We targa topped a Cavalier... this would have to be easier.

yea but in an accident it would prob fold like cake and somehow your insurance will find a way to deny you.


On another note, i hate fiberglass too troy. Basically all body work i hate. got some more sanding to do today, hopefully paint tomorrow. Fu(k the bondo wall. I think i would rather get runover.

lol, that's what I said too, And just smoothed things out a bit in the back so it looks better, but there's no way I'm doing the whole back wall like that. Looks fine to me.

Yep. I made a tape line on the front of the dip in the roof and sanded to it smooth. I will just paint the front lip of it when i spray the top. btw do you have the link to your rattle can writeup ? i think thats what i'll end up doing tomorrow night.
