    Yeah cool car but I agree the mirrors look odd. Also, the whatever-they-call-it behind the driver and passenger's heads is to small. The windshield comes up higher than those pylon things, so the nice clean line from front to back is broken.

    Just my two cents.

    the mirrors would be also looking good if they have the same color as the car - so blue

    Are you certain that it isn't a kit car? No a fan of this car at all.

    Definitely not a kit car, but clearly a polarizing concept.

    I like it - don't like the 360 mirrors (or lack of painting).

    Something at least to think about: Maybe the TR market is finally at a point where we'll start seeing more of these "retro mod"-type arrangements. The financial incentive to keep them straight-from-the-factory-fresh has lessened over the years?

    Actually, I think the financial incentive to keep them factory fresh is greater now than perhaps anytime in the last ten to fifteen years or so. However, there will always be a market for well executed cabs...especially the Straman which has a degree of legitimacy among collectors.

    Please excuse my ignorance....what makes it a Barchetta? Or is Barchetta a word to describe a open top 2 seater?

    I do like the chrome air box.... (ducks for cover).

    My opinion is a barchetta has no top
    A small boat as to say

    Other conversions may use the terminology
    However, not true to the sense if they put up the top when it rains
