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?
 
sitting on it's own now..a **** ton of work to do still.
