It's made by a guy named Grinder on CR.net. His company, Autokonexion(sp?) makes a couple of different things.

IIRC, you will have to supply the hard top. It is an add on to the hard top. So, could be $$$ if you are starting from scratch

I dunno if this is illegal here, but if it is, u can delete this and I apologize. He is accepting orders right now. I am on the list for one. It is on groupbuy for the first 10 (I believe) on cr.net for $1200 then will retail for $1500 after that.

There you go those that wanted one. Figured for something like that it would be around $1k. Insert $$$ were mouth is...

Just curious. How many of you guys would prefer this look/setup and be willing to lose the open sky above you? Looks like in order to take this off, you would have to put back on another trunk lid?? Not as easy as removing just a hardtop if I had to guess.

IT looks done well. But I hate fiberglass, and if i wanted a Datsun, I would buy one with an LS1 and real metal.
