Another FRV (Fixed Roof Vert) in the works - Pics
After seeing Black_Magic's car at CI4 I knew I wanted one too 
So, after gathering up some parts from forum members and vendors I jumped in with both feet 
Started prepping and mocking things up tonight. Still have a long way to go though!
Here's the tonneau after being filled and sanded
The Z06 rear section and glass targa in place
Targa removed

Your work looks great. Can you explain what your final options are and how everything works? I haven't seen this idea before. Looks pretty cool.

I like the way you did it. It looks great and I can't wait to see it when it is done. LMK as soon as it is because I want to check it out.

Does it actually convert all the way down into the trunk. Not ragging on you but what is the purpose? Was this so it could be run on a track. If the top retracts all the way into the trunk, I take back my statement cause that is cool, otherwise 
not on my baby.
