![]() ![]() All the funny jokes aside its a very plausable mod for the right person with the skills/money and willingness to experement. The biggest thing here is don't just grab a hartop and weld it on, its pointless, if you want the stiffness, put in a roll bar and then throw the hardtop on, end of discussion, but if you really want to go all out and create something, I'd say go for it. The spoon s2000 comes to mind for real inspiration Then strip the body panels off the car, and weld a frame to the frame, bars that wrap from the rear up to the a pilar and start putting it together sort of as a roll cage at first, a good skeleton that will actually give you additional chasis stiffness. My suggestion? play with the shapes a bit, get somone who can draw cars to start doing so for you, get 4-5 examples running and then decide what you want to do. Realistically though you're asking a question that is pretty simple, its like saying can i bondo wings on my car? sure just do it. Try to read SE's hilarious post at work without laughingor showing any sign of amusement, ebcause then the boss will know you aren't doing work. So do you have any in 040 laying around? I'll give you 500 for one if you do. Maybe JB Weld? Oh man, it's gonna start again. So go ahead and grab a dozen or so and start experimenting. Nowadays, you can still find hard tops all over the place. Toss in a bag of briquettes and barbecue out of 'em. In the winter, we'd turn 'em upside down and use 'em for sleds. So yeah, you could pretty much do whatever you wanted. Had 'em stacked up like turtle shells in there. There was a point where I had so many hard tops I had to go to Sears and get a little portable metal building just to house them. They had so many in inventory that they were running contests, like "Guess which day Saturday will be this week" and you'd get a couple shipped right to your door, any color you wanted. oops.īut then, this all happened back in the day when Carson Toyota was giving us hardtops for free. The people who thought you could Weld Metal to Fiberglass were starting to get out in front, until somebody actually tried it and. We had the Bondo faction, and they got into a fight with the Exterior Latex Calkers. ![]() Even if that means picking up where someone else left off.Click to expand.Many, many times. Likewise, those who would like to put more on for the community will.Īll i am trying to do is give back to Spyderchat since it has given me and so many others so much. Most people are lazy and will not feel like typing their information out, or simply just do not have the time, however if we do that, i guarantee they would use the resource. this could also be done much easier by writing a script to pull the info for me.Įven Easier, however would be if whoever is managing the site would pull the active directory from the server/host, edit the document to include only the members who are still active with their locations, then if a member decided to add more information they could. I know one example of doing this, although it would take a while, would be to go through the member list, view their last activity, and for those still active with locations, map them. If that is alright with you/the creator of both. Since you say there have been similar made, i may go into the others, see what they have to offer and pull info, etc. With this since i have supplied the mods with the login information so that it is not reliant on only me, this way, if i do ever go anywhere it will stay active, especially if it is stickied and updated regularly. They probably executed alone, got bored or forgot about it. Others may have tried, but that is the thing, they have tried. Like wise, i wish i knew more people around where i live, and while only maybe a quarter of members have their location up, i believe this would be a good solution. My reasoning is that in the year i have been active and year prior i was lurking i hadn't seen anything like this that is this simplistic and to the point. I sent a pm to two mods supplying the credentials to login and modify this map. ![]() the purpose is to show members the locations of other members/retailers(monkeywrench for example) initially. Click to expand.My intention is to have a very basic setup where it is embedded within the thread and stickied. ![]()
