hey man thanks for the offer I actually just bought a set from a guy on another forum just waiting for them to get here

I have the 40 x 40 sliding rag in mine. I'm just going to say its a pain in the ass to open and close. Its a 2 person job, but looks badass fully open.

I have to agree with u on that one ANT I had one smaller than the one u have & I had a problem opening mine too.

I personally think a nice power sunroof would be sweet looking. Not sure what the biggest one that is made but I know a company called Webasto makes them.

I have been seeing those on some peeps rides Wonder if I can get one straight from Webasto or not. Those are pimp!!

yea it be nice get get one of those power roofs off of a pontiac G3

Dude i'm 99.99% sure that they make power rag tops, just so you know

update:

not a big one but winter is finally over so im back at it haha (i wish I had a garage) sooooo all im doing is stripping the motor down and sending it out to get rebuilt. Also im doing some more work to the box ie trim the fenders so i can tuck my rims and also cutting the factory tubs out.... and also im just waitng on my rims to come back from the wheel shop and im gonna throw those on aswell....

here is the crappy 2.6 haha dont worry its gonna come back nice and shiney


here is the mess im gonna be dealing with while the engine is gone away....any suggestions on ways to clean it up ie hide wires ect..


the billet I got from speedy I just threw them in there for kicks


I have a feeling im gonna rip this back off in no time haha
