Here is what I will be making my superbird conv out of. its a 69 Coronet 500 conv. Very rusty I think I may just graft all the conv parts over onto my Rust free 70 Road Runner instead of reskining the coronet.

Hey Sunroof,I would make the Charger convertible from the Coronet,and get a 70 Satelite convert to build the Superbird vert with. It will save you the greif of swaping a whole rear clip for nothing. When you do the Charger,you have to Change the whole rear clip anyway,so the Coronet would do for that project! If you start with a 70 for the bird it will save you a lot of work! Just trying to save you some greif! The sunroof bird looks really cool!

I think you should make a convertible out of that BUS!! :icon_smile_big:

Hi Have decided now that I will be cutting My rust free Road Runner top off and setting the Conv stuff down in it out of the Coronet Conv That way it will save alot of body work and I can be driving sooner. I want have to replace all the floors and frame rails that way. I worked on it some this weekend and got it running so i can drive it some this summer While I work on it. I put the wing Off my sunroof car on it for now till I am ready for it on my other car. Makes it much cooler to drive this way. Heres a few more pics.

I'm not a big convertible fan but there's some real beauties in there.
I love the smell of nitro in the morning.

One has black interior and the other white. Now that I think about it -- I think Swampwing had white, but many brain cells have died and regenerated since I hung out on the board he hung out on.

Sunroof bird, why cut up a solid Road Runner,I would just sell the Runner,and buy a 70 Satelite convertible. There not to hard to come by,and what a rust free Road Runner,would bring you,would cover the cost. Your making a lot of work for yourself,to fabricate a car,thats already done for you by the factory!

I will be building a daytona conv soon. and it will be very different than anyone else's as i am starting with a 67 Satellite conv and graft a charger sheet metal off some of my parts cars on to it. The reason I am going with earlier car is the rear window area is straight across [heres some pics] and would look better with the charger trunk lid lines unlike the curved 68 to 70 B Body convs. this project is a ways away as I have to finish my sunroof Superbird and My Superbird Conv first.

So....have ya started building it yet???
