Personally I would have taken the A4 convertible. That has the strength built into the floor.

@retrox6844 жыл бұрын
The truck bed adds most of the strength back. These kits are also not compatible with convertibles

You are 100% correct. Guinuine convertibles have reinforced rocker and floor panels. Scary that these companies are in business. Would love to see destructive testing on these kits!

@spanky5225 жыл бұрын
It works better if you do it with a two door instead of a four door. I also found out that once you cut the top off, you will need to add more support to the under body to keep its rigidity. Most cars now are unibody so once you remove the top, it's very weak in the middle (the first bump you hit, you won't be able to open the doors!) I've done this to a Ford Pinto wagon, (Pinchero) which looked pretty cool. And I also made a little truck out of a Chevy Citation ("Camino") It's fairly easy to do with some body shop skills. If you cut it just right, you keep the taillights and rear portion, but you won't have a tailgate (didn't really need one anyway) The rear window on some cars will actually fit behind the cab too, so it looks factory built.

Impressive result, but as far as I could see, everything is attached by screws and rivets and made of Aluminium and glassfibre. What about the structural integrity?! You weaken the body dramaticly by removing the (half) roof unit and the C-PLR. In addition, if you are carry some load on the deck, you will get a banana 😂😳🙈

I don't get all the people crying in the comment section. The owner can do what he want's with his car and also Audi A4's aren't rare so not much is lost. This is a cool project and it's nice to see something different every once in a while. I'd say this is something quite refreshing to see at least for me. Also just to clarify, I don't know if i'd do this myself because the structural integrity is weakened but it's great to see someone had the courage and will to make this a project.

I guess it's because Audi's aren't as common in the US compared to Mercedes or BMWs? It's a cool project to take on, but I would probably use an old BMW instead. Like an E34 wagon, E46 hatch (like that one guy did here on YT) or even an E39 wagon.

I like that. Another vehicle that would make an interesting conversion would be the Crown Victoria or the Mercury Marquis as the platform essentially ran for over thirty years, they are well proven in untold millions of miles of harsh service and the buy in is quite modest. Too, a company named JVC or Japan Victory Company (or the like) made a fiberglass bed for a 91/96 Chevrolet Caprice several years ago and Superstepside made a fiberglass bed for the GM (Caprice.....) "box body" Cars. The possibilities are many.
