[Moderator - I understand if you don't post this one!]

[Moderator Response: Thank you for the clarification that this car DOES NOT have gullwing doors. Please do not repond with a discussion of every gullwing kitcar ever made. - Mike Substelny]

I rode in a Sterling as a kid - the whole roof rises up. A wild ride
though - felt so low to the ground.

One kit car that does feature gull wing doors is the Nereia - I believe
it's a spin off of the Nova/Sterling. The fellow that makes them has been
doing it for at least 10 or 15 years - and when he's not building yachts
he's making the kit cars - so you can bet that the fiberglass is great. (I
don't own one, don't work for him, but hope to buy one some day.)
