Be careful not to slip over that line! I suggest, that if you are going to persue this 'madness' that you re-enforce the "frame" first (see below for that "tirade")

: : OK. I am kicking the I dea of building the convertable Mav. If I decide
: : to go through with this, I swill be using a 1971 Mav. I have access to a
: : body shop and my younger brother has the skills to pull this off. Here is
: : our idea.
: : We decided that the easiest thing to do would be to take the complete top
: : off of a 1965 through 1972 for small convertable. The fron pillar and
: : winshield all the way to the rear window.
: : Here is the Help I need.
: : Does anyone know the smaller convertables available during those years.
: : does any one have any exact measurments for the interior of the Mav?
: : Off the top we think the rear window has to go. Also, we are thinking
: : that a fiberglss hard top willl be the easiest fabrication possible.
: : Any thoughts.
