I like it. Have you considered possibly making a recessed plate bottom, with plate cap...like a mini toolbox in your door? Simple hinge job and clip, you can store odds and ends right there. Just an idea. I like the clips of the offroading too.

But man! Don't you realize thieves can now get into your truck???








Actually, it really fits with the overall aesthetic of your truck. Good job!

He has the same theft prevention theory as my Bronco. Make them ugly and bashed enough so that no one wants them

What did you cut the doors with, a hatchet? <hehe just kidding>

That really is an awesome idea. All you need now are 'T' tops. I've thought about making the top half of my F150 cab removable, kinda like the old broncos. But I'm not sure if the rest of the cab would collapse or not.

Better idea....fill the doors w/ ice and throw in some beer.

Used a sawzall and the grinder for the choppin.

There has never been any rear glass so if theifs wanted it they could have taken it but the way it looks I dont think anyone will try

Maybe down the road I will chop off the cab (leave the windshield) and make a custom soft top w/ canvas....
