Figured it'd keep it a little cooler in the summer... had spare doors and a hatch.

Looks like you just took the window out of the hatch, or am I missing something?

Very cool man, I like the doors! And you missing the window is all?

Did I miss the thread when you finished them? Must have, I only remember you working on them...

They need to be poo brown though!

thanks!
Yeah it's just the back window that's missing. Maybe the title is a little misleading... technically it's half open now, correct?


I haven't updated that thread yet when I was building the doors.. just too dang busy, but I'll update it here shortly.

My credo
Toonces drives a Ranger . . . . just not very well.
That's a nice looking truck. Well done.

cut it out like the half doors. make it so its only a foot tall at the bottom.... then its a half-hatch. after all, i dont get half doors just by rolling the window down :derisive:

Looks good!

I kinda like the black look. That's what I'll probably end up doing mine like.

It's amazing how many people stare when you cut a chunk out of the door, haha. You can lift it all you want, but cut the door, oh man! It's kind funny the look on some people's faces though.

It's a 102" whip. Looks a little to redneck-ish for my tastes but I tell you it's the best dang antenna I've had so far with that spring mount. It a lot more flexible than antenna's I've had in the past.
