Hi Photoshoppers, please can one of you clever bods do me a fairly simple and clean photshop of the following 4x4 ? Cut the rear door off just below the window and add it into to rear of the cab, behind the driver and passenger seat, giving a bit of space behind the door. Close up the rear doors, remove door handle, and cut just on the line of the windows. If you want to , the spare wheel can stay, or preferably remove it. Hope this is enough of a brief and that the pic is good enough Thanks, Rian.  |

Indeed that's quite funky, it looks like it should be hard at work in a open cast mine. |

That is pretty cool, Thanks, 427, I would prefer it a bit shorter in the cab by about 3inches, maybe with thicker B pillar, but it is great, I think in reality it would look great as a slightly different pickup.
And for around £350 starting money, probably an affordable "different toy"

Grizz-O, unsolicited suggestion. But always open to the weather pick-up beds are unusable for gigantic periods of time. Plus stuff gets lifted out the back if it's of value. No privacy for what you're haulin'. Etc Etc. Yet it looks cool, yes? So what to do? Have cake. Eat it too. Tarp when needed. Off when you want to be sporty.... yep, works. I'm rolling that GT40-headed Bronco round the gymkhana course at the local NASCAR circuit. ;D    |

Hi Norm, Quite appropriate question, I like Pickups, guess the Redneck in me is alive and well.
I like stuff to be different, and the 2nd Photoshop is what I would have in mind....
It is silly money wasted etc.... but hey, its a hobby, and to me the practicality of a closed rear comes into it, but like riding a motorbike or Hotrod, sometimes it is just the right thing to do, and sod the sensibilities.
Oldbus, you know I would, and between us we could knock this thing out in litteraly a weekend if we had the materials like flooring etc at hand....
VERY TEMPTED, again, and this time it is not the P100.

..it is just the right thing to do, and sod the sensibilities. But of course it is! My contribution was to encourage you to do it! But with the added trick of leaving open the chopped back of the cab and using a tarp rear. As shown with the 3 Bronco shots. This makes the thing way more useful: Can haul a full backseat of people in the rear under the tarp in bad weather. Keep your cargo dry. Extend long cargo up into the cab if need-be. Yank the tarp off for balmy weather and sporting moments. Win-Win. |

Hi Rian We had 2 Toyota CROWN's and after a lot of repair work on the back of one of them we decided to do it again was too much so this is what we ended up with  We had an elasticated tarp made to cover it.The rear door's are cut down ( about half size ) originals and both open using a remote boot release and we use an old sunroof in the back panel. The engine has been changed to the later 2.8 straight six with auto. My parents use it regularly to do car boots. Adam |
