Where are you sourcing your hardtop from? I have the one pictured above, imported from the DB Replicas (UK) a few years ago. Dave does a great job and has been very helpful with instructions on how to make side window frames etc. There are other options if you search the forum. Although I understand Craig was looking to manufacture his own hardtop for the Pace. Is that still happening?

not sure if its their "Holier-than-thou" attitude, as all I wanted was just to enjoy share and have some opinions on my build criticized or acknowledged and from time to time get some help (that's a joke) but seams they have no time for others so I have no time for them, on another note pace has been very slooooow with my parts and feedback from wazz is at best one way, as usual so I have stopped my build yet again

I wasn't a huge fan of that bonnet design at first...
but when I saw the finished product...it looked really trick.

Thax boxhead, but I wish it was my garage I would love all the cars in that garage the pictures were taken at the Pace factory, they did a great job on the bonnet I wanted it to blend in and they nailed it, the static function is great IE I can reach in and adjust shocks without lifting the bonnet, but function on the road as you quite politely pointed out has to wait, Life is hard isn't it.

Deano yes some are ugly Pace have been looking into it also not to sure if they are going to go through with it, Craig or warren can give you more information regarding the hardtop if any but I like there workmanship on my bonnet as I said previously and I would order one.

Thanx Warren Pace has done a great job on my bonnet and is continually refining and doing a great job the workmanship is great products are great even the friendly slagging is great.
