Default Split trunk...

Yep, our Unique uses the original type split decklid. Thought I'd post a pic, but I don't have any on this machine!

For some good pics of the Unique top & split decklid, pick up the latest copy of Kit Car Buider magazine; they have a feature on Mike Fields' red with silver stripes Unique 289 with the LeMans hardtop.

Interestingly enough, with the hardtop off, the split decklid draws more questions and comments than anything else about the car - I suppose that without the top, the purpose of the modified lid is a bit of a mystery to people. More than one person has described it as looking like a turtle's shell. And, more than one lady has told us how "cute" the decklid is.

Maybe I ain't that good looking, but by golly my car's got a cute a$$!
