    Z31 hatch to coupe conversion???

    The idea to take a 240sx coupe's, (onevia)'s roof and cut the back section of and graph it on to a z31 popped into my mind the other day. Anyone ever heard of this being done before or ever thought about it? Im just curious because I think IMO it has potential to look cool. I am in no position to do this myself currently.

    (Not my car, found it on google and it was the right angle for photoshop on my phone.)

    Interesting .. a different take from the Pantera hatch mod … I think it could look cool too. Turn the deck into a trunk, so to speak.

    I didn't see it in person but a coworker snapped this somewhere in TN. Gives you more of an idea of what it would look like.

    It's now a Ute… or rather, Zute.

    Butt Zugly. Makes me a little embarassed to live in the same state. I guess when Zbarn went out of business the owner had little choice as he could not source necessary parts…
