So what's the deal with the top? Did you take a mold of a soft top and replicate it in fiberglass? I'm lovin' it...
Do you have any more pics you could pop up?
Didn't someone attempt this a few years back on the Topica list? I think it was Bob Witte but maybe he was just blowin' air.

Interesting....very interesting.
Whatever the details are, I'd like to see more too.
Looks to me like the whole top has been chopped, including the windshield frame.
Either that or there's a lowered area forward of the top bow on the outside of the windshield frame giving the appearance of a chopped windshield.
Notice the extension beyond the front of the windshield frame? |

translation from Danish or Dutch or Chinese or whatever- all Greek to me:
Daaaaaaaang... I love it!!!
I've never really been much of a fan of chop top things unless they have no top, but the lines on this one really pull it off well.
That Thing looks just plain mean. With a killer stance, hot rims, and a simple paint job without a lot going on in it, that will be one hell of a looker. I'm interested to see how he will paint the top.
That car just oozes raditude...
