Roadster with a door?
 
Anybody have one or know of one? I am a big man with "FOS" disease! {Fat, Old, Stiff}

Just brain storming about a relatively light weight car [2000 - 2200 weight range] that I can get in and be comfortably seated.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Larry built a '63 Vette for Scott Roth thats now out in D3.
I built a '78 Vette for Earl Nichols a few years back, and a lot of others have sprung up around the country.
The only advantage over a conventional body is moving the body out of the way of entry.
The chassis must still meet 10.4 SFI specs, You will still need to climb over the shoulder hoop to get in.
Larry, you can PM me and I can give you some ideas of whats involved.

Jack Henderson's roadster has a door. I believe that's who you're thinking of... CBS is right, it's a really nice car.


On the left front in this pic, I think it says "King" Race Cars... So SG1809 would be spot on.

CBS, are you thinking about that Willys? Sweet car. Definitely from Advanced Chassis.

See you at the races,
