Default Any convertibles in here?
Im sorta shopping for a 2000+ convertible, SS/Firehawk/WS6 models. Anyone have a sweet looking convertible in this section? I rarely see nice examples of drop-tops here.

Thanks
Tony

If you get a convertible, then add one of those 400+ci engines to it, you are going to twist the car in half! My little 302 mustang convertible is twisted enough that the damn doors don't even align anymore.

This F-body would remain relatively stock. The '69 is the *official* LS1 toy. Basically the 'vert would be just a nice daily-driver.

Now that is an idea! What did the front clip cost? Also what hood did you use?

Cheers,
