Ive seen the roller door variety... Never on a datsun but on a falcon or commodore once. They look... wierd in my opinion. As far as alluminium im having issues on figuring out a way to make the parts of the corners that roll over the edge.

Holeshot, Is there any way of getting a photo of wallys cover?

I heard about a trick...Im not sure if it will help or not. Apparantly you ask the old owner of the car to put your name on the rego as a part owner... Then the next day he takes his name off- suddenly the car is solely yours and there was no actuall exchange of vehicle. Apparantly you dont have to pay the tax on it either.

If all else fails, I do know of a few places that will probably pass you pretty easy- just pm me.

Im seriously looking into the alluminium solution at the moment... Is wally leaving it exposed? or painting it?

It seems alluminium isnt that hard to work with.

I agree, making the flat bit is the best way to start... But two questions arise,

1How do i actually make these curves? any sugestions?

2. Ive noticed that most hardtops have that vinal covering, to cover inperfections I figure- I guess the big problem is sanding such a large, flat object smoothly. Any suggestions?

I think making the flat part wouldnt be too hard, but curving the sides, back and corners over the edge sounds like it might be an issue. Any suggestions?

Ive been trying to get my hands on a fiberglass hardtop for my ute for a while & the quotes I've been recieving have been upwards of $2000....

I cant Justify this cost & am considering trying to fabricate my own. I have little to no experience with fiberglass so I would appreciate any tips or knowhow about the process. Does anyone know much about how to go about it?

The other option may be to organise some sort of mass buying of ute hard tops... It might get the price down a bit.

Any feedback (even to tell me im crazy) would be appreciated
