I realy dont know what the rear window is from ,It was just a roof section at Ballarat swap and now after chopping it its hard to know .
I searched the plymouth Jase but to no avail ,and a mainline is way different ,but I do know its off a coupe ute .
The floor pan is the toyota and chassis and its tacked in position now and ready to go .
The window idea was originally to have glass instead of lexan crap and when I looked at the profile of the roof its almost identical to a 34 &*#@ ,my ol man had a rear window section from one but I couldnt get it out of him so I went lookin
I like it but getting mixed opinions otherwise, Id love to make it a roll down
Also I decided to use the airbag setup thats here so they dont change the laws on that before I use it to ,maybe they already have - Im not up to date with the changes that took place.

they haven't changed YET but the people i talk to (engineers and blue slip guys) say get any modified cars regoed QUICK

if NSW RTA get there way it'll be near impossable or VERY expensive to rego them
thought we were on to a good thing with andrew stonner getting in power but him standing down from RTA portfolio only seems a bad thing to me, like he got what he wanted and now don't give a f#%k about the "car guy" that may have helped him to his position

but then he is a politician

yeah I was disappointed Stoner was assigned a new portfolio too
It's actually not his decision, it's O'Farrell who decides how to arrange the ministry.
Let's HOPE the new Govt repeals some of the proposed changes...
