But I see one option.

I agree. Great pictures. Thanks for sharing.

That hinge assembly looks like a very complicated but beautifully engineered and machined piece. Who does the work?

Perhaps I should be asking Shelby, but would you mind sharing info on the ballpark cost of doing this conversion?

Good luck with the final job. Enjoy not banging your head anymore!

This is a mod I'd like to have. Not that I'm not that flexible but it is rather redicoulous to crawl on your knees in the car when cars parked along. GRRR
When I see the doors open like this... how far do they open? How much space is required? In cm?
