I bought this 41 ford this past summer out west. Someone tried to chop it and gave up on it. It was saved from the crusher. I was either thinking about putting it back stock. I'm trying to find a roof somewhere. Has been whacked into pieces and some of it is missing.

Another idea I have come up with is keeping it a convert. Molding the b pillars and door post into the same shape at the edge of the quarter glass are. It would look funny in the rear with the trunk but I was thinking about using a pop on liner fabric(like those you seen on trucks.). Make the car a 2 seater. I need to get a rear spring for the car. It currently doesn't have one. Maybe chop the front windshield. The next thing would be to make the top of the windshield look like a convert insted of having just a straight cut.


What do you think?

I found a hood but the owner wanted a couple of hundred. Shocked

The back of the car around the trunk area is going to look a little funny. This is going to be a cheap project. I've got a 200r4 overdrive trans out of an 80's gm car with 13k orig miles. Might pul the engine out of the 79 4x4 and use it.
