what i plan to do is chop it, put the roll bars in, and build some support tubing that goes aroundthe edges of where the "bed sides" will be and then hopefully go on up around the cab, but that will come over time

is a chopped b2 really lisenceable? cause i was wanting to get her on the road sometime

well first i took out the interior, this suprisingly was done the right way, i took out all the screws then pryed out on the window glue along the bottom then i could jus lift it up..thats that

now for the hatch..

first thing i done was lift it up then size it up..got to thinking with my master mind and took a strap in the back of her and went to see the donor
so i parked to bronco head on with the donor, and hoooked the strap on the front of the donor, and up over the top of the b2 and hooked on the hatch, while the hatch was up
so i put the bronco in 4hi and reverse and floored it, she flooded out and shut off the first time, lol besides the point.. so then i got her goin and tried it again and the hatch came up over the roof of the b2 and BANG..window broke in it(not suprised)

so then i cleaned the glass off the roof and it started to rain (of course) so i hooked on the mazda which was in the shed and pulled her out with nobody in her and let her rear end me to stop, and then put the bronco in the shed and thats where she is now

im at my moms nwo so when i get back home with dad tonight i will mark the lines to cut and maybe cut it, but not sure
i will keep my build updated, once i get it done

I don't think I've ever seen cuts look so rough..

And what was the point of a poll if you weren't going to go with it anyway?

Enjoy the chop top. I plan on using conduit to dress up the window seems. Actually not sure what would be easier folding, welding, and grinding or splitting the conduit.

Boggin. I just came in my pants. Not from your choptop, but from the lifted 2005 or so F250 that's currently parked in my driveway. Mmm.. wish it was mine.

Just had to say it :D

I wasn't saying I don't like it, I was saying that truck in my driveway was AWESOME. No idea who's it is though.

Choptop doesn't matter anymore anyway, didn't you rip the cab off? Or was that the other one?
