That car CAN be saved,and here is how:
Reinforce the unibody, if that was not already done. Completely remove the roof, and leave the "A"-pillars as they are. Custom-make a cut-down windshield and remove the side windows completely. Remove the rear seat entirely and build a fiberglass tonneau cover for that space behind the front seat and back to where the old rear windshield ends. Add bucket seats and a console. Paint to suit. Voila! A custom roadster that would actually be a fun ride!
Hope is not lost on this one.

That is very ambitious... one thing... I don't think you could leave the A pillars as is, the passenger side doesn't appear to match the driver side and doesn't quite line up at the roof either... May as well frame it up for flat glass with your idea... then it would be cheap and easy.
Sorry, I still think its a parts car.

Stan is the grumpy old uncle that sits in the recliner when family is over to visit, 90% asleep and holding the remote with a death grip..."Don't touch that damn remote, I'm watching that!"

When tobacco growers fled Cuba, they brought with them the "mother plant". Genetically identical cuttings from the mother plant were then raised in regions of the world where the soil and the weather were even better than Cuba's.
[h=1]A Hala Kahiki Pineapple Beer and an Acid Kuba Kuba Maduro Robusto Infused from Thompson Cigar is absolutely the epitome of wretched excessive. Thank you, Ross! The lad knows how to live. [/h]

Yeah I guess you guys are right a bumper jack is definatly better, carry on and we will be sure to have at least a 3 page thread as a memorial to you.
Some times they put the little hydraulic floor jacks in a plastic carrying case. That would be the ticket, or just put one in a card board box with other spares/supplies... I like to keep stuff secured, but even on driver cars try to carry something like that. The smallest, cheapest aluminum jacks go on sale for $50-$60 I wouldn't even open the box.
Or just call AAA
