    Maybe it just looks weird to me in the first pic because the car is so high off the ground.

    I fought the four door thing for years ('50 Merc) and finally decided to make it a two
    door. Yours is looking bad ass. Hopefully one of these day I'll see it in person.

    Keep up the good work.

    Happy Trails,

    Mick

    Awesome! getting rid of the ugly hump in the roof made a huge difference. Love the color and the paint on the roof
