We had a saying in construction.
One winter we were using the exhaust from the generator to warm up siding before we cut it so that it wouldn’t shatter and this kid was having a hard time with this last triangle shaped piece. We yelled down to hurry up, as we wanted to take the walk board down. To which he replied I’m trying, I’ve cut it three times and it's still too short. Uncontrollable laughter and snow covered walk boards are very dangerous but we survived with a story to tell.
 
thats what research and picture folders are for.
collect what you think is cool. then render it in like photoshop with actual pics you took. post up on a forum like this and prepare for the abuse, but you'll be far ahead than looking at a static disaster from a sawzall.
wow.
 
He changed the ad with different pics. I can't quite figure out what is going on with the roof - is it a sunroof?

Can it be fixed?

I think it would make a pretty cool convertible.To bad they didn't start to section it, could have saved somebody a pile of work if they wanted to go that way...
