    Django, I have to say, that is pretty frickin' impressive, and sure beats the hell out of dropping the floor like I had to do! Looks sweet as hell!

    A couple of shots for the guys that wanted to see the internal pinto hinge set up. Reinforcement is welded into the roof ready for the hinges to bolt to but as you can see they're not attatched to the doors yet. Worst part of the job so far has turned out to be reshaping the rear roof above the door apertures as removing the drip channel leaves a gap between the doors and the jamb.

    Hopefully some rubber D section will make it water tight

    Paul, Your F100 is gonna be as Trick as Hell, thats' real nice work you've had done on the hinges.As your rear door now opens upwards, you could use it to shelter from all our liquid sunshine that we have in the U.K.!!!:D

    A little too much head clearance there I think,but it'll keep the rain off the old Ducktail when the hinges are adjusted:D
    Next up,fill the gaps'n'cutouts and round the bottom corners
