I Agree, the past week I have been leaning towards converting a real Z for this project. The few nice converts I have found cost as much as a real Z. If I pick up a POS convertible then I'm dumping $ into fix her up and its still not the real thing. The wider azz is one of the unique things about the ZR1.
Anybody know of a shop that has the talent to do such a conversion? The time is right for this because Z prices are at an all time low. I have my eye on one now
