Ross,
Top off looks nice.
I was fortunate to be able to borrow an NOS inner rocker MANY years ago. I had a friend make he and I copies. Attached are some pictures I took before the NOS inner rocke was shipped back to a trusting Packard person.
Questions;
Are you going to modify the outer frame brackets to fit the new inner rockers?
Did you box it in all the way to the firewall?
Will the body come off the frame, so the extra steel strapping can be welded to the frame?
Are you going to use the windshield as is, or cut it down like the Caribbean windshield? Will you add the extra bracing on the inside of the firewall? Can't wait to see how you are going to do the header.
Will you be adding the brace in the trunk, like the 56 Caribbean convertibles had?
I have more, but enough for now.
