    Sorry, no before pics. We got the bad body from a barn nerby!
    The body had no subrails, lose covel, 4 really bad doors! In short, the
    top was usable, and 2 doors to start with.
    No problem for my friend, his motto is "if you don`t have it? Make it", and
    he does. Last winter he build a really cool bike, and before that he made a
    modified from scratch:eek:!

    Grinder, great coupe, beautiful job, love the rear corners. Were the corners in that shape when you got the body or did you repair or replace them? If replaced, where did you get such nice stampings. Seems a bunch of us need rear corners for coupes, and the corners on your car look fantastic. Outstanding job, keep the pics coming.

    Hello.

    Thanks for your replays!
    I finally found some pictures on my old laptop:)!
    As you can see, as Fenderless pointed out, the 4 door was not much!
    But i managed to get some parts out of it!
    I can see, that i can learn alot from the HAMB!! But need some time to learn computer stuff!!
    HAMB is the best place i have seen:)!
