    I did not want to cut the thing so much that it looks 'crazy',
    but the top on an Es*** from the factory is really wierd compared to
    a Ford, I am trying to tastefully 'tie it all in'

    In the larger pic I had not cut the rear portion yet.

    Thanks. Boyd, I went thru the pics on your site, quite informative. I like your chevy/es*** grille, I just could not put the stock ugly es*** one on mine!
     
  9. Es*** is the coolest!

    I used the top of 1980ish suberban for my 29 Es*** coupe roof. It worked well for me.
