And yes,the body will be corrupted.The roof went away with the SawsAll.She'll be a spyder at first,with turtledeck head fairing,tonneau over passenger side and rear seat, (mocked up in plaster right now).I have a second (mini-hypercar) Plex aircraft canopy also.

My thought was incomplete. The electric conversion would allow a pickup box to be almost as low as the floor of the engine compartment.
OTOH, for a spyder... Hot VWs had a feature car once (I'd never find it again, I've got 30 years of back issues) that was a Ghia roadster. He used the top back roof section from an El Camino for the back edge of the cockpit. It matched the contour of the Ghia perfectly and gave a nice curve to the edge. One could reproduce it with a piece of pipe bent to match the El Camino.
I like the idea of the Ghia fenders and tailights on either side of a tailgate.
