Nice ride storm, Funny story here too, my budy wrecked my white 98 modded SS which was very close to perfect all the way around back in October '08. I bought it back from the insurance co and was going to buy a 98 ss white shell and swap everything over but I found this black vert for an absolute steal and bought that instead, One of my other friends bought my wreck off of me and did get the shell I was going to buy and has been daily driving it since mid Jan. How is the transition going from vert to t-top? I'm going from a hard top to vert lol.
