    To each their own. I bet he's proud of the work, the design, and the results.

    I saw it at the rally also. At first it was coming straight at me and I thought it was a golf cart. He really did do a nice job on it. I wonder how it handles on an interstate?

    Dunno, I think it looks better/more interesting that the roof I've seen on the Slingshot.

    There's an SC Spyder Rally? Where was it? Is it a regular event?

    If you look closer it has windshield wipers they come from the top of the roof.

    It was in Anderson SC and the organizers said they will do it again next year about the same time in May 2020 I believe this is their 2nd rally

    Like it or not you have to admire the skill and craftmanship of someone who can put something like that together. Go brother ride in good health.

    Agreed, I may not like it, but I can appreciate the work. Then again, maybe I do like it. Its definitely different.
