1993 Green Mark VIII Convertible

It's a Coachbuilders conversion, I've heard they made 23 of them.

Here's a couple photos, I still need to paint the top boot black, but I wanted to get some spring photos.

It truly is a beautiful car Bill, keep up the good work!

So is it ready?

So is it ready?

If you mean is it waterproof yet, sadly, it's not. The rear window in the top needs to be re sewn and the other leaks still need to be fixed too.

you got 2 and 1/2 weeks then, lol

Here's a few shots of it with the top up, it rained a bit today, I had to put it up.

Check out those rear power windows.

It was warm enough to finally paint the top boot black today. That SEM paint works great.:thumbsup:

I finished off painting the visor area black yesterday.

I also installed my module 8 today, this car needs to be lowered.

I always wondered why the marks didn't have power rear windows

I would guess styling, weight, and cost.

The power windows on the convertible are also smaller than the original windows, increasing the blind spot and cutting down on the visibility from inside.

Wow! That is a cool car. Don't see too many of those at all. Keep it forever.

I took the car camping the last 2 weekends, here's some shots of it there.

Very nice :thumbsup:

Thanks again everyone.

Here's a few drone shots of it, I'll be taking more of these.

Now you need to hinge the trunk lid at the back, like the old Skyliners, and build a "drone deployment system" in there.
