Help? Please and thank you!

Post by lgifford16 »

Hi all!

I remember a while back (before I had registered for this site) I saw a thread where somebody had turned their spider into a complete roadster. They had welded in new sheet metal where the rear seats in the car are, and brought the whole thing right up to behind the front seats. I really liked this car and am thinking about doing something similar with mine. Only problem... I can't find it again!!!! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is this the car?

This car was done by Hal Gaylord, who sadly passed away earlier this year. He had done amazing things with this car, and was in the middle of a new project, supercharching a 69 124 Coupe. I'm not sure if the rear deck is welded in, he made it, (along with everything else he did), from the hood of an early pick up if I remember correctly.
This car has a 5 litre fuel injected Ford engine and sits on a custom frame he built. The stacks are for air intake only.
