    I took 4 out of mine all the way around. It should have been 5, but I was too chicken about being able to see out of the front windshield.....

    Still love your car Lead, looks great. What did you do for your top insert? It looks good, I was thinking of doing a removable type thing for my sedan to, I just wasn't sure if I'd need bows to keep it from flapping it the wind

    The cover is waterproof canvas like tent material a local shop s***ched for me. The snaps are pop rivetted. I put a wind/weather flap over the front that works real good and I like being able to take the top right off. It'd flop around without the bows, but you might get away with it. Most of the flopping mine does, seems to be toward the back.

    I might change my mind if I had a ride in yours. The one above rides like a new car and my back doesn't keep me bent over after 4-5 hours riding in it. I got a few miles in it going to Bonneville last summer.

    Hey FlamedAbone,
    Didn't you used to have the gas tank in back, like a deuce? Did you move it to the back seat... or???
