Wonderful James. Is the rear opening to accomodate a spare wheel/tyre? Richard

Thankyou all for the compliments, I can actually say i'm pleased with the way its starting to look, if you look back at earlier photo's on this thread you can see why i made the lower hatch, truck was origionally a van so when i bought it it had chopped down van doors instead of a tailgate, lower hach is just for a spare wheel, Frank when you come over allow a bit of time and i'll give you a tour of mine and my dads collection, pickup is coming to my house tomorrow to make room for a 1600hf thats being dropped off this week for repair

Hmmm thats how "rediculasly" short my cab was, yet another chopped van must be a craze  ??? doubt they'll sell it for the same reasons mine was so cheap..........NO ONE COULD GET IN IT!!! my mum who as you know is just under 5ft tall was the only person who could actually get behind the wheel of it and it was even snug on her, in a sence i wish mine hadn't been chopped but then again i probably wouldn't have had it if it weren't such a problem project

Don't worry about the cab size James...will bring a human sized shoe horn and some duck fat next time I'm over!

Onwards and inwards.....;)
