Looks great !
Are you going to put a bar across the top of the delica frame behind the driver's seats ?
I can show you Turtle (poptop). It has an additional reinforced brace crossbar. I think this is necessary so the sides don't fold over in case of a rollover.

I have the bar and the welder is in the truck. I was also later going to add a second bar across the back that comes out with pins (like removable bars on roll cages) for the back seats....
not sure the roof added much support though pretty simple and light! Most the strength is in the outside frame around the outside roof.
Cheers

I suspect it was Jay having to put up with me
Actually I do not think there was a hard part....Cutting the roof off the Delica was a little bit of a commitment as I could have ended up with the first convertible Delica (not what I was hoping for).
Everything went very smooth (again thanks to Jay)

taking a cutter to your rig's body is always a butt clincher
