Ha! Major step man! I don't want to start hacking it without thinking it through because I can't just weld it back on if I hate it. I agree with you about the sheet metal.

Besides, it isn't like I am just talking. Took my rig wheeling today and added a few scratches!!! ;)

I am getting a house and my very own garage next month (closing June 18), so I imagine I could start hacking then if I decide to do it...


Mime? Thats funny! I should have taken his arm off or something...


The biggest drawback I see is that I won't be able to sleep in my truck anymore. I have it setup with a tool box that folds down onto the folded back seats and gives me (and the wife) a perfect place for a queen size air matress. I have a tent and a camp trailer, but the trailer is a pain to drag around and I hate sleeping on the ground.

Thanks for the help!
 






check it out its like a mini sport track
 






How did everyone around here learn how to use photoshop? I feel left out. I can't make mimes (or cool body work projects). :D
 






I use it all the time for publications and stuff at work. Great program, so much more to learn!
 












Some damn good p-shop skills ya got there.
 






that looks bad ass. you should do it.

Don't do it. Now, you have a usefull SUV. If you chop the top, you'll lose that great enclosed cargo space, for a less than usefull open bed.

Just start playing with it, trying different tools out. There are also great tutorials on the web.
 






I need to find the software first. :)

......My wife thinks it is Hill Billy, but I really want to do it.

You want hillbilly? A guy up the street from me just chopped up a jeep (saw it today). It was a SUV type one with only 2 doors. The doors still have the window frame and window in them. No roof at all (not even over the front seat). No tailgate or anything. The rubber seal is still hanging where the tailgate used to be. Just junk held in with bunge cords.

The doors with the window frame and windows, yet no roof, and lack of a tailgate make it look really dumb (IMHO)

j602 what are you talking about? the sport body is perfect for the chop, the 4 door has too many door pillars for chopping :)

Plsu the sport is like the perfect wheel base for a trail rig

Just my 02, I think you are nuts :)

hahaha best 4 door chop I have seen is Micheals (red Bull)
I like Ricks removable windows, and brian had the same thing till he wnet nutso with the sawzall.

I have a BII and I still have a top, not many of those left these days!
