Reply to "Outlaw Speedster Build."

Ham sandwich lunch time Outlaw update. My mis-matched flanges fix was to switch out the stub axles for Type 1's to match the Type 1 built trans.

Today, I'm in the process of putting a square peg into around hole. i.e being able to fold down the top carriage frame, still have room to attach the fiberglass quarter tonneau, still use part of the show bar and the cloth 1/4 boot cover so that it can all be on the speedster at the same time switched out as desired ....stay tuned~

Edit:  ......An afternoon of cutting, grinding and drilling, I was able to adjust the scissor top frame fit so it now clears the rear lip on the tub body and the adjusted fiberglass header bow still captures the windshield frame along with having room to set the fiberglass tonneau over the stored top and can also now replace the fiberglass tonneau with a Stay-fast 1/4 boot cover and it all fits . With this configured, the "show" driver's hoop bar can remain and the horizontal cross brace that supports that too. The padded faring will also be on the car. .........So the way it will work : Outlaw mode: Open polished aluminum wide five wheels, fiberglass tonneau, hoop bar & padded faring in place. Stock configuration: Porsche wheel caps, replace the fiberglass tonneau, faring and hoop bat with the Stay-fast 1/4 boot cover. Owner's choice so to speak. I'll post a photo early next Week .......... Merry Christmas All !

Your theme song, Alan.
