so i’m confused…in the first post, you said it will look like one of 2 options…one of which was a coupe, the other a hatch…and then you proceeded to put up pics of your project shell…which was obviously a coupe…and finally, you put the pic of the hatch in your sig, stating “under construction.” so um, are you converting your coupe to a hatchback? because if not…the thing in your sig is NOT under construction…and you fail. ---
