Cool
![]() Sorta reminds me of the 55 Chevy 4 door conversion to a 2 door by moving the pillar back and using doors off a 2 door sedan. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/s...d.php?t=228873 Both projects are definitly labor intensive. ![]()

Al Davis still owns the real Deora; It was his father’s car and has been a family treasure for almost 40 years.
I talked to Al a few years back he told me it was at the Peterson Museum for the Hot Wheels Display. ![]()
