A link to the completed cabrio VX project in Kazakhstan by the Russian VX forum member, the car has been recently presented at the auto show in Almaty, pretty amazing, huh?

that was some good reading

[Ldub]

Too bad the steering wheel is on the wrong side...

VERY nice work.....

[etlsport]

very cool.. really digging the "rollbar" in the back.. really not feeling the spoiler though.. overall very clean and awesome looking!

[MustangO4]

Good God. Why did you show me that? I have to lock up my sawzall to stop myself.

Must resist

[vt_maverick]

Not quite as clean as the O2 IMHO, but I think you have to wonder if this (minus the spoiler) is what a production model would have looked like. The concept had no rollbars, no cover, and probably only minor extra gusseting to compensate for the lack of a roof. Isuzu may very well have implemented this roll bar design to make it pass US safety standards and allow for some sort of top.

Bravo my Russian friend. Bravo.

How does one stop the precipitation?

[johnnyapollo]

I like it but don't much care for the painted cladding...

[nfpgasmask]

That looks like a quality chop job for sure. Proof that it can be done!

[Scott Larson]

The original '02 was proof of that!!

[VXjunky]

wonder if there's a functioning top

[Hotsauce]

I see no reinforcement to the windshield pillars.

The rear hoop really should be triangulated forwards or back.

A top is a WIP.
Also, the side windows had to be removed.
I will re-post pictures as they come available )

[WormGod]

Prefer to maintain the structural integrity like on my summer mod. TTop rail adds to windshield support and removable canopy for the rear.



Regardless, too rare to take a sawzall to.
