Re: Any tall SPF GT owners here?

Chris - I didn't want to be the first to leak new product info, but since you've broken the ice, yes, it appears to be true.... I was told that....

... Superformance will offer cut-down GT40 doors that achieve a T-Top effect, and that there will also be a true spyder version, with no roof at all!

I'm not sure, but I think that the spyder roof must be specified at the time of order, but the doors can be retrofitted to existing SPFs.

I, also, prefer the look without the bubble, so you can imagine my dismay when I barely fit WITH the bubble.... I also like the idea of a GT40 spyder, but I have yet to see one that doesn't look like a sawzall job....

Kirby - Thanks for the pics. I have never seen the SPF seat without padding, so I can't picture what modifications I might be able to make. I have no problem at all with beating and bending the bottom plate, or having a custom seat made, provided the stock one can actually be removed. In SPFs literature, the phrase "seats - integral as original" has got me puzzled as to whether they actually come out or what.

If anybody has a pic of a disassembled or removed SPF seat, please post!
