Not bad the but personally don't like the way he went with the interior.Here is one from a Pelican members (don't know if the guy is also a rennlister) base on a S2 Cab.

I've seen both of these before as well. The blue one looks very well done, but I don't see any provision for a roof.
The yellow one has a terrible interior. That solid wall of speakers sure limits your seating position, and doesn't seem to match any flow in the interior not to mention the flat roll bar, yet has the two "humps" behind each seat. It should have the dual roll loops, one behind each seat. Maybe the loud yellow screams too much as well.

Personally, I like that mine retains the back seat. It has made the car much more useful than my other 2 seater cars.

Wow, that yellow car is quite unfortunate, however I think that blue S2 is beautiful. The yellow 944's body lines are all screwed up, but the S2 is super sleek and still kept it as original as possible.

I saw a Civic spider a few weeks ago. Some tard had cut the roof off of it. It was a coupe. What a tool.
