Default wide body

I am looking for some to custom build a wide body kit for my 2006 roadster and possibly fabricate a removable hard top. Does anyone know of some or some place that could do that? I live in Willard Missouri which is 5 miles north west of Springfield.

It will be cheaper to lose some weight.

I think the "mafia" somewhere in your state who fabricate some really neat semi tractors could help you out...but there are no kits, and there are no removable tops..

Are you looking for something like this?

It's not a kit, and I'm not sure where they had it done.

The shop that did my hood, (Customs Unlimited in Hartville Ohio) could build you a removable hardtop. (I always thought the C1 Corvette Style removable hardtop would look great on a Crossfire.)
As a one off, it would probably cost around $5k. (But that's just a guess).
There was another "Wide Body" custom Crossfire in yellow that appears from time to time on EBAY, but I couldn't find it when I did a search. Maybe somebody else could be more lucky finding it.
Good Luck with your mods.

Here is another pic of that same car:



The other one you were referring to was the PIONEER Custom Yellow car but the links have all expired.

Curious how you think it belongs to 09maxi? I bought some parts off this guy here in Cincinnati and he said he was never on this forum. As I said, just curious. He introduced himself as Frank, same guy?

Followed the link +fireamx posted to cardomain.com, scrolled down to this:

09maxi.jpg

Says he's from Cincy!!!
He may not have ever been on this forum but he uses that handle on cardomain.

He also states that he owns a 2007 magnum, a 2006 300 and a 2005 magnum.

Another view...

Ok, thanks for the reply. He had an SRT parts car he used also, I assume for spare parts to help with this creation. I bought the hatch and wing from him along with some other small parts. James
