I have V8 car and would like to set the trunk to open from the rear. I am having a hard time visualizing how I might accomplish this. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shocked[1].gif) Does anyone have any examples? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

If you have a functional targa then the rear hinged rear trunk would be a PITABT (Pain In The Ass Big Time)! Imagine trying to strong-arm the roof into the storage space...my back would rip itself out of my body and slink away if it had to do that everytime I needed to insert/remove the targa. Not necessarily. As long as you're fabricating you could come up with trick way of sliding the top back into the open trunk. Getting it back out again would be a little harder I think. |
