> Thanks for posting the links for the pictures. I scanned the original photos he gave me a while back. Now that I've changed over to a better web space host it's great to be able to post them online.
> I've been following the thread on turbododge.com. When I saw the pictures on eBay, for some reason, I just couldn't visualize what the Daytona would look like with a shiny coat of paint. Things look so much better when they're fully restored. Or in this case "new". > The pictures of the Laser look great. I would just replace the Laser taillight with Daytona taillights, and install a rear wing on it. It really looks like it needs a wing back there. It's an interesting setup. I'd still love to see what an Omni GLH would look like with a convertible format. Someone should be able to built a fully functional one by using a VW Rabbit cabriolet parts car. The overall dimensions are very similar.
