PM me the price. Interested in buying one. I like your hinge better than the 'skull splitter' hinges that I've seen. Great work. Does it use the same type of weatherstrip that bus safari's use? |

My first safari was had them "skull splitter types" lol and I didn’t like the fact it wouldn’t open all the way. plus it looked weird with the glass sitting above the roof line. I have driven my car down the freeway at 60mph with the safari wide open for miles. couldn’t even get over 40 with the other one. this is way i started making my own.
PM sent
both my safaris
didn't have the frame screws in yet

His work is top notch.
Also...
Every time I have seen one of his cars I don't think the safari has ever been closed...
