    Now THAT looks cool!!! You'll need more support for the roof. I can't see that holding in a rollover. For starters I'd come down with a tube on either side at the top-rear of the roof and go all the way to the floor. Next, I'd do something at the front of the roof to beef it up a bit, but not take away from the over all look of it, cuz I really like that. You are certainly on your way to a really neat design!
