Hi Malibu, not quite the Dumper Truck I was expecting but still a cool conversion. What you now want is a cool dude driving with a nice dolly bird next to him...!

Ghosty - I tried to make a dumper out of it bud it looks a bit stupid so it turned out to be a convertible.

Stephen, you really should let the forum be the judge of that my friend!!!.

I urge you to challenge us with your creations, adopting a conservative approach is dull and predictable!! :D

Hello Stephan
Awesome job on the hard top to rag top conversion.
I am particularly impressed by the color match between the original interior and the folded down rag top.
Great work on the conversion. I'd love to see it in additional perid correct colors.

I've always been partial to the 64 / 65 Mustang. I can remember my father test driving a used one in 68 or 69. We ended up with a 69 Chevy Nomad. A classic in its own right, but definitely not in the same class as the Mustang!

Hi,

thanks again for your replys.
I must say that I do not understand all what you have written.

Ghosty was does this mean: ..Dumpers are a well known problem area in conversions..

Motorman what do you mean by this sentence: I urge you to challenge us with your creations, adopting a conservative approach is dull and predictable!!

Kurt do you mean "additional period correct colors? But this would mean I´d have to build another one...
Be happy with your Dad´s Chevy Nomad. In those times my Dad changed our VW beatle into a Renault 4 - I had a brother and a sister there was little space for us.
Where do you came from?
