I cut the bitch up starting from scratch, full on buggy with jeep skins. just cut the hood and need to cut the grill, next the cowl. I am taking 6 " out of it, I finally decided on a 2 seater instead of the 4. Narrow is better right. I should just do a buggy,,, but I do like a vehicle look and still want to try and run it on the street to work every so often. Baseball has me consumed for the next 6 months so I will work o it slowly. Besides it has been really slow at work the past few months so I have had the garage time taken up with 9 transmission jobs the past month (thank god for those) so I didn't burn up my parts money on bills.

Keep rocking on yours! are you going to bring it down with Corey the next time he rides down here?
