Hey Davey;

Sounds like you getting ready to be busy, I had originally planned a 2 " Channel on my Coupe but decided against it when I sat on a seat on the floor (Pontiac Fiero Seats fit really well )and Measured to where the roof would be and only had 2 " clearance, so decided against it. I asked several channeled fellas at the Nationals and they had a good point IF you ever decide to sell it you really limited to the under 6 Ft group. The Tribute to your Dad is a Super Idea. I'm sure you'll make him Proud. The Idea of the A/C on the Driveshaft is inovative, but you said you were in So. Calif. Won't cool worth a flip setting in traffic on the Freeway or at a light. How do you mean " Hide it " ? Wouldn't hurt to insulate it real well either , especially with Temps in the 100s. Good luck Tim
