much thank!!
excuse me, but i don't know you did say. I have trouble translating some text
I can say I did do.
the top is chop in 4. respected the lines of the studs and the ceiling to stretch them by adding strips of metal where the roof is stretched.
I hope answer your questions
Looks great. How did you match the body lines for the rear window and front windshield. The taper in the back usually needs to be sliced and spread to match the rear window channel. the front pillar also tapers as it goes up. Did you add metal to build them up?
What do you do with the gap between the windshield and the door when it is closed? Is it just missing door rubber?
I am not knocking the work by any means. My uncle and I chopped one years back and used two roofs to make the gaps smaller and easier to weld. We did it in 4 sections just as you. It really does look good though.

I do like the look of the truck...Im not a chop fan...BUT that bed and body side looks is great...That is definately a S.American setup...treat them well as thats a rare puppy..
If you want, post the door tag info and we can decode it...at least some of it Im assuming as I dont know how they did the warranty plates on other continents.
