Came across this and liked it a lot.

Streetneat was the creator ?

I just liked the way it sat. A nice cruiser...........
Pictures can always be a bit deceptive
Should have been a production version. 2 door convertible.

Looks like it came from GMH (stock), wonder what the roof looks like? It can make or break a convertible if it's not the rite shape, Trev

Maybe I'm looking at it from the wrong angle, but the FB/EK windscreen doesn't seem to suit a convertible.

Looks very nice though

In South Australia you can lop the top off any pre ADR car,
chassis strengthening is "recomended" only

No checks, no problems

Until you hit a spoon drain

Part of it has to do with the angle of the original photo, and the car is a little high in the front. Again related to the photo.
The screen is to low, for this photo based on ground to body to screen proportions. And the use of the painted part of the original door frame around the 1/4 vents (And piece of drip rail moulding) does not help as well.

Seen this one in Adelaide

The pic is not photoshopped

Shortened two door convertable with a removable hardtop

Built by Hemi for his partner Tina.

It is an outstanding conversion, it looks spot on
