Can someone photoshop a convertable 3g

[cvergi01]

As some of you might have noticed by my coffee can intake, I have an 87 accord that I get to play around with. Well the propane and rigged intake aren't enough. It is awfully nice today, around 65, 70 degrees and I'm cruisin with all my windows down (I love power windows) but it just wasn't enough. I got to thinkin that a convertable 3g would be pretty cool. Before you flame about how the structure of our cars aren't made to be a convertable and what not, could someone photoshop me some ideas on this conversion? Anything would be cool (cut all the way, from behind the driver/passenger) use your imagination. If someone can come up with a good looking one for me, I'll do it asap. thanks,

Chad

oh man that would be sweet, but i'm thinkin it would look better being t-top

[HondaBoy]

you know a long time ago i saw a 3gee 2 door convertable on a tv car show. it was white. i'd like to see if i could find the pix of that, it was pretty cool.

[thegreatdane]

Well there is a guy on here that made a pickup out of a 3g so why not. Someone made cabriolet 2g ludes back in the day so I should think a 3g coupe's body structure could manage it too. I dont think you would want a 4 door cabriolet though :lol:

[DanLXI88]

I would settle for a 1/2 removable roof although the aerodynamics I think would be bad. But I have seen it on other cars why not a 3G ?

[cvergi01]

That's what I was thinking...1/2 removable, but I need to know what it would look like. I saw someone a while back photoshopped a red hatch and it looked like a VW cabrio :sad2: so, I think it would be better to see what it looks like before I get a result like that.

i've seen a few convertable 3gs posted on here, search some and i bet you'll find one

[86LXItooFAST4me]

i have a superstreet with an 85 civic 4 door that they made convertible. had 240sx headlights and the new teg tails.

I did, only found the one that 3g jester did

[88accordalltheway]

i think you should make it a hard top if you do it. Cloth top would just look really stupid. The T top would look sweet. Also, if you need more air, why dont you just get a sunroof?

[i.c.]

i've seen a convirtable 3g a couple of times.....there in the japan lowrider scene thats going on right now...

[johndej]

[cvergi01]

Thanks john, I think I've got a pretty good idea as to what I'm gonna do now. If anybody can come up with something else before sunday..... :thumbup:

[cvergi01]

HaHaHa that would be too easy and just not enough cutting, I want it ALL gone Muahahaha:nuts:

[k-roy]

Who needs a photochop when its been done beofre?

Escuse me while I go vomit.

[cvergi01]

That is the most beautiful 3g I have ever seen. Wow imagine all the work that went into that. Espicially the purple interior and the gold trim mmmmmm that's good. My god if I owned that car, I would drive around town all day long just so that everybody could see my blingin pimp ride. Damn that's nice :thumbdown

ehhhh wrong answer. lol the effort is way up there but i can't say the result turned out to well. ugly car.

[faceboy]

that shit is pimp son....

[88accordhb]

a pimp piece of crap...lol nah, it's an art piece, not a car.

[cvergi01]

ok, since nobody posted any photoshopped pics, I started cutting yesterday. The back window is gone...oh hell, I'll just microsoft paint something.

God, I hate microsoft paint, I'll try to get some real pics later today

[88accordhb]

ewwwwwww!!! aren't we missing somthing? like seats! and wat the hell are we gonna use to steer that beast?

[cvergi01]

Hey, it's microsoft paint damnit...hense I wanted someone good to photoshop it

[deadlight]

Oh lord, you're just making a name for yourself, with the coffee can first and now onto this. Are you going to keep the rear window and C-pillar intact?

[cvergi01]

Hehehe, the rear window is already gone (My friend was trying to pry the rubber lining out and the window just popped) and yes, the c-pillar is still there. It is cut from just above the front window to the c-pillar, you'll all see, it's gonna be the coolest 3g ever! and your all gonna say "gee chad, can I ride in that pimp 3g" and I'll say sorry guys, my propane tanks and my ego are taking up all the seats :cool: ...what have I gotten myself into :lol:

[BlueBead]

If I were you I'd do a takeoff-roof. My buddy did that with his s10 lowrider, and it's pretty cool. You chop it off in one peice and then put a seal on both edges that you chopped, and then you make latches to hold it together when you put it back on. That way you have a convertible that is also a hardtop.
I'd do that, but it sounds like you're looking for something quick and dirty.
* oh yeah, there are kits for this....dunno where though

[jigga225]

chill out man,
just cause the car didn't cost you much, doesnt mean you have to act an ass with it.

coffe can thru the hood. knock it off du

[cvergi01]

wheew, knock it off? and of course I can act an ass with it, it's my car. The best reason to go to town on it is because it didn't cost much. Ever seen pimp my ride? If this turns out well, (which it will) It's gonna be something that nobody has. The coffee can was because there were no hood scoops laying around my house....sorry. If the fact that me having fun with MY car, and having the resources to do it without reprocution makes you angry, I sincerely apologize, I am not doing it to hurt anybody's feelings. Shit, when it's done, I'm gonna put an alarm on it so you can't jack it......See sig :ugh:

[cvergi01]

so, today I found someone who is a good welder and he's gonna weld me a roll cage so that the car maintains its structural integrity....he's also gonna rebuild the carb for me. One of my friends might come over today, and she has a camera phone so I can take pics.

As some of you might have noticed by my coffee can intake, I have an 87 accord that I get to play around with.
Chad

dont knock your intake.. that thing probably sucks in air... i would just hate to see the bird that gets sucked into that thing..

[cvergi01]

lol, it does get the air in there pretty good, but I need a real scoop to condense the air and force it in there....I got a new air compressor with a whole bunch of air tools and an angle grinder yesterday so the project is gonna move alot faster :)

[Chubs87Accord]

haha, wow youre actually going all out with it.. must say im opddly impressed.. anyway, for the topic at hand i noticed theres still none posted.. i just did a BS mock up convertable of Jiggas car to throw up here
