That is cool looking. I like the dually, it just looks tough..

The 'crew-cab' job has almost no bed in back. Our former BMW Z-3 had more space in back.

The reg cabs have good proportions.

You have to remove the headliner because it might catch fire when you’re welding the body parts back together

you can keep the high level brake light and rear window wiper and washer if you want.

Spotted yesterday 6/8/2021 on Ohio Rt 2 somewhere around the Lorain/Erie county line. By my wife.

I was impressed that she recognized it as an HHR and not a real SSR.

Anyone know this car?

I wanna make that in my HHR, but I have a doubt if that modification will increase the insurance ? and if I have to register the car again?, thanks

If your HHR is registered, you can modify it, your next inspection or safety check might be a problem! So, don’t plan on selling it after you cut the roof off!

It may or may not increase your insurance, but it may stop them from paying on a claim if they consider the modification to be deemed "unsafe" in their book.
