The windshield steel frame. The welded body part.. I already have a convertible top and a 2D HT car with badly dented and with c-pillars rusted out roof, so why not transform car to convertible.:D Sheetmetal work is not a problem, but trying to duplicate the conv. windshield frame is a bit...

What is the windshield frame top part condition? I am in need of convertible frame.

I think you should try watercutting instead of laser..:thumbsup:

It was quite an experience to look through those pictures.:thumbsup: Maybe I take a little peek more..:lol:
