No, but that is not a bad conversion at all. Be worth looking at as it looks like a nice little car. Could be good for a big motor and some wheels. Dump it and it could be one of the coolest cars in Oz. The real concern would be how he braced it when he chopped the top off.

Interesting to note that the ad says that minor repairs to canopy and bodywork to finish restoration. hmmmm, maybe he can't get it to pass an engineers certificate to register the vehicle.

My dad did that to a square once back in the 70's... pillars and roof rusted out so they just chopped the roof right off! 😂 👍
