Wow. Just wow. Typically, trying to make a car into something it's not, ends badly. This is a perfect example. It was a cool car to begin with, but now.... wow. Just wow.

Yeah thing is every time we see one with a vinyl top its got that straight edge that just....ends right before the B pillar and so ya got a straight edge and at the bottom a curve out of nowhere and I've wondered what this would look like. Now I know!!!
