Yes it does! :-\ I used to drive my '63 everyday with an "aronson style" decklid. In Belgian climate. I always had a roll of ducktape in my car for when it would start to rain, then I taped the hole shut from the inside. The many times I forgot were followed by a lot of cursing and swearing when the car wouldn't start because rainwater had poured straight on (and in!) the distributor cap!

To me , it crosses the lines with the american hot rod scene to much. But your right, if you like it that's all that matters.Title: Re: Pictures of Aronson Style decklids please :) Post by: Lee.C on February 02, 2008, 14:15:10 pm "it crosses the lines with the american hot rod scene" I think thats why I like it dude - I have a few COOL ideas up my sleeve now guys ;) :)
Title: Re: Pictures of Aronson Style decklids please :) Post by: Lee.C on February 02, 2008, 14:44:26 pm One thing I do notice is that there seems to be 2 main types of "Aronson-style" 1=with the ridge and 2 without the ridge
Anyone know anything more about this ??? I have noticed that Aronson's car DID NOT have the ridge :) Title: Re: Pictures of Aronson Style decklids please :) Post by: JO TYPE 3 on February 02, 2008, 18:45:08 pm In the 80ies the german beetle custom company "MTM" produced those fiberglas deck lids.
They called them "Lohhof" (http://pic.leech.it/thumbs/7535cimg5270.jpg) (http://pic.leech.it/pic.php?id=7535cimg5270.jpg) (http://pic.leech.it/thumbs/38140dimg5272.jpg) (http://pic.leech.it/pic.php?id=38140dimg5272.jpg) However other creations of MTM aren't cal look style but famous in these days...
