Thanks man! I'll tell ya, it's a great thing to have in the garage!

So after getting the car on the road I was blown away by the amount of wind I was getting blasted by when I was just cruising around. Worse yet, that crisp 5 in the morning air on the way into work was near unbearable! Since driving it was so fun though I ended up enduring the first week, which made me highly motivated to stretch some sort of roof over it on the weekend. And that I did! I call this the prototype roof seeing I just used the same tan material i used for the door panels and some white felt-like material in between the wood and the tan stuff. I thought it might turn it into a bit of an oven with the top but ended up working awesome, made it so much nicer to drive and not bad for heat at all. One pic is of the planning phase and the other is the result.
