    Looks great so far!! I see your mocking up the windshield....You ever consider running a small half circle glass on your side only it would look smooth ! the car is so clean how it sits. What do you call those tonneau covers that have a hole for the driver?? One of those too!!! That rear is sick.

    Pretty cool man, no floors is the way to go. Also, the wheels are pretty sweet.

    TITS brother!

    One suggestion. Try to lower it. I think it'll give it a nicer look and prolly ride better too...

    LMAO! Nice scraper Bud!
