Roof chop

Post by T33stat »

Hi all,

Just curious if anyone has ever seen a rocco with a roof chop? I have seen the cab conversion but never a chopped one, could be an interesting project...

Can't say I've ever seen one, I guess it's because there is not a lot of head room already in a Scirocco and the roof is pretty low already.

I've just googled it.... How about a Volvo!

There's lots of strange looking car but not a Scirocco.

Hey Blueshark,

not the best roof chop i have seen, seems to loose the scirocco feeling, they have cut the glass at the top and not replaced so it looses the normal lines, back window also looks so wrong! sayvbe thats something from a Volvo! or worse ... a RENAULT!!!!! :-o
