Re: This is different

That is one nice ride. Looks like the door was extended about a foot. Like my truck, there has to be lots of bracing to keep things from moving. Would love to see this in person...Jim

If not more! It better have a LOT of well-thought-out bracing added.

Re: This is different

There is some serous work involved in the build on that one. Interesting rig too.

I can just imagine the time in those doors alone.
