Don't know about you, but the idea of fibreglass doors on the coupe is enough to give me second thoughts. The original design was not one of the high points in automotive structural rigidity and replacing stressed steel doors with fibreglass does not seem the best of ideas.

In a race car where the interior, front and rear are fully braced it would work but on a streetcar - that's just a little to close to the wind for me. Especially if you decide to throw it into some reverse-camber corners...
