| 4 Door Hardtop becomes 2 Door Convertible |
| 61 Olds Starfire gets re-restored! |
This Oldsmobile Convertible was purchased in 2008 from the USA as a completely restored car needing only to
have trim installed, engine and transmission installed and some electrical.
As the new owner was re-assembling the vehicle he noticed some issues and decided instead of continuing to
assemble, he would dis-assemble to see how bad the issues were.
The car turned out to be a complete disaster. The clear coat blew off of the base coat easily.

This 4 door hardtop was purchased as a parts car to be cut apart and pieces used to properly restore the convertible.
After much consideration and because every part of the 4 door hardtop was so much better than any part of the 2 door
convertible, the decision was made to use the 4 door structure and graft the convertible parts on to it. Thus turning the
4 door hardtop into a 2 door convertible.
