Translation of the story "LÅGT TILL TAK" in PV-Entusiasten # 4 1999, page 25.

Don’t buy a PV in the winter without first removing the snow from the roof. That advice is given by Klas Andersson from Smålandsstenar. He did not do that, and brought home a car with small dents on all the roof.
I don’t know if it helped to speed up the decision to build a tasteful custom or not, but Klas without doubt put the grinder to the body and cut the roof five centimetres closer to the ground. It was easier to change the whole roof to one without dents than to repair the damage on the original.
When this was done the upper corners of the doors were rounded off which produced somewhat softer lines.
As Klas opted for eight inch rear wheels with 205/50-15 tyres, the fenders became too narrow, especially in the rear. New wider plastic fenders were ordered. The new rear fenders were made for even wider wheels than the ones Klas would use, so they were made a little narrower in the forward section to make them look better on the body and to make the wheels come closer to the fender.
After painting the car with grey metallic colour, new Plexiglas window panes were installed all around except the windshield, that has to be made from safety glass. This has caused some problems. The cut down original windshields have cracked one after another.
Mechanically, Klas has opted for a trimmed up B18 engine and not a V engine that you might suspect from the twin exhaust pipes.
To be able to get the car to a stop in time, servo assisted disc brakes from an Amazon (P121) were fitted.
Finally we can conclude that Klas has made a car with personal style without too much effort economically. The effort has been extensive though.
Just as it should be with a hobby car.
