Don’t know! They weren’t there when I got the car. I’ve never met the owner. This car was passed from owner to another and then another before I got it. Once I get the conversion completed, I’ll start shopping for the correct parts. I know I’ll need the two front doors as well (rust). I’ll be getting rid of the back seat and any and all trim from back there. I plan on keeping the rear “spoiler”. I liked how Bob Bolander used his luggage rack-roof rails on the side of the pick-up bed.

But your welcome about the face book lead,
Seems to be fairly common mod on FB from what I have seen !
But man there are some sharp looking conversion :)
And Definitely Updates as you go.

There are several Facebook HHR groups. I can recall seeing at least three pickup conversions on Facebook. One was many posts that documented the process from the beginning to something of a light at the end of the tunnel if not near complete. One showed up on Facebook Marketplace that looked so good I was tempted to check it out but it sold fairly quickly. The trouble with Facebook is the archive is pretty much in your head; it’s very difficult or impossible to find stuff that isn’t recent. Every once in awhile I’ll screen grab stuff that I think is worthwhile, but then it’s lost in MY disorganized pile of pics.
