    Can I order the stretch body with a second door on the driver side? Also, can I have the interior covered with a material of my choosing?

    Sorry, but the Long Body is only available with the passenger side door. The material will be picked by you, we have many samples to chose from. If you have material that you want to supply send it with your order and we will use that.

    Just my opinion but I would think you might loose some rigidity with 2 doors. Just a personal thing but 23's only had one door. CCR does make an excellent body though.

    I don't think the body adds much to the structure of the car. With a drivers door there is so little room between the back edge of the door and the steering wheel, entry is still hard to do so the effort of installing the door is just not worth the trouble.

    Thanks for the input. I like the looks of a second door. Its hard to choose when the manufacturers make great products.

    My car has two doors and is very rigid, these cars get their strength from the frame. I have seen years ago several cars built with only a roll bar, and that wouldn't add any rigidity to the car.
