At the 25 minute mark they lift the back end of the car. The entire top part of the shell comes away from the floor pan.

Anything’s possible if you don’t mind spending £25k on panel work.

The person that bought it is a member of our club so we're getting some updates as he does work on it (I don't know if he's on here though)
