    Cut the doors and got the body angle mocked up. Because the World needs another Comp Coupe.

    Picked up two Model A door tops that were cut off to make a Roadster. $20 at swap meet. Put windshield support in then sectioned and chopped door top to make a windshield frame.

    Cleaned up inside of body. Put in some air holes so gas tank hole wouldn't be only one.

    Did this about a month ago. Closed up the top to match up with the top of doors.
