so my Bradley has the roof held on by a set of carage bolts, but i have seen photos of people just fiberglassing there roofs on, and it makes scene
but i just want to know if you have, and if you did how do you like it?
also i have seen photos of moding the rear window so it can take a piece of flat pexi, i want to know how hard that is to mod, and how you did it would be cool too.

As far as the back window, you want to get in contact with "Big Bob", send him a PM or look up his past postings and really listen to what he has to say. Don't just read a couple posts and call it good, go back as far as you can, and read the progress as well as the holdups, and take notice of other things that may be affected (such as carb, distributor, and fuel tank from the fiberglass dust; among other things.) and make yourself a todo list of things to prepare for a transformation like this. I'm not trying to tell you not to do it, because it does look cool and the porpose of a kitcar it to make it into something you want it to be. What I AM telling you to do is research, and learn from others, for they are our mentors and friends. If even we learn 1 thing from each other, it will be a lesson well learned.

No screws holding it together at all. I didn't do anything at all from the inside. I did make sure that I had a very deep and aggressive taper to the two sections. And if I recall correctly the rear is still screwed down as the screws did not come through the outside.
I saw the car last year and there was no cracking.
