I think it will looks great, basically just a body swap rather than a channeled minitruck.  |

I've done a post on FB and the overwhelming response is that it's going down like the other one. I've already started fitting it. This OEM floor pan is a bit tougher than just building a framework, like the last truck. It's a bit of "Try this, does it fit? Nope, take it off again and cut some more". I'll get it sorted, this interior is going to be much better that's for sure. |

Just like the last one, I'm sure you have loads of ideas but the last one just looked "right" to me. Makes you wonder if the whole stance thing is just a trend that will come to pass one day. No arguing stuff looks cool sat on its backside though...

well, its a utility vehicle, i never saw the point of deleting its USP of hauling stuff. (which you kind of do if its in the weeds) because then you end up with a compromised scene car, looks cool but not terribly practical.
all opinion obviously, but i'm basically voting high

I think that you got the first one pretty much bang on so why spoil the secret recipe and it still looked like it was more than practical as a load lugger/tow vehicle.

You must feel pretty good that the new owner is happy enough with it to want to show it off. And +10 points for the SpongeBob floor mats in the new one. A great fan myself, although sweetpea may be a tad put out!.  |

If the Django is going to be a common combo with the International (another one?  ), would a template of wat to cut out make things easier? Or is it pretty simple now that you've done it once? |

Now that I've done a Django (I see what you did there, awesome movie) floor pan, I know pretty much where to cut. If this one works out in the end, I'll keep doing these trucks again and again. If you count the hours on this build vs. the last one, I've cut the time in half. If I can do that again, these can be done in days, not months. Now if I only had a few buddies that I could feed pizza and beer, we could finish even faster...

You could do it like a...man-cave contiki tour.
Fly to the 'Merica's! See the sights! Drink lots of beer! Build a truck! Drive the truck!
