The roof is a structural part of the car. Convertibles have fully boxed frames to make up for the rigidity that is lost when the roof is not there. If you cut the roof off a hardtop, the frame will probably sag. John Nasta -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Mike; by the way- the MSRA is a great club for only 20.00 per year the news letter is fat-(monthly) has good info in it and i think the classifieds are worth the price alone. although you cant get into the back to the 50's car show for free (10,000 cars last year!!!)like you can for some clubs

Hi Vernon, The bed coating is Dupont do-it-yourself and I think it sucks. To me it appears to be thick paint, nothing more. Eventually I plan to take it to Line-X or someplace like that. cYa- Herb Lumpp1966 El CaminoACES 3509, MCC 528http://users.adelphia.net/~hlump/ - Original

If you see the guy again with the Yenko Deuce, ask if he has it in the Deuce Registry. I know the guy who runs it and he provides a lot of great info to the Deuce owners. No,I think the original color was a dark green. It's black now but will probably be repainted back to the original color
