Already been done, so if you need an example here you go. This is from Long Beach First86 event so it was done before the car was even released in the US.

Ugmm, it was even uglier in person.

Keep in mind, I made that design right after ‘11 NYIAS Scion FR-S Concept, so of course it doesn’t look the same, cuz it’s totally different car lol

Actually it would probably fit in the trunk sideways, but would have to measure.

Worse case you have two. I full width solid one that would add rigidity when in place and a canvas one that would roll up and fit in the back.

My '83 Z-28 had a canvas top over the custom conversion Targa, and it worked great for that purpose.

Yep. Looks like a cut down MT shifter. No snow button either.

I do like the rear seat delete.



But do not like the instrument relocation.

Cut down and hidden under the boot or bypassed and removed.It is a show car so the odds of accidentally going into reverse is remote.

I can only imagine how many new MT drivers would launch in reverse by accident without it!
