not to be negative or anything, but am i the only one who can picture that whole back half bending after driving it for a little? from the pics, the only support it has is the two half circles of inch and a half tubing to support it.

he has the two half circles connecting the two halves, and more than likely the round tubing goes inside the frame a bit.

Why was the pieces not cut as 2 45* angles? I have seen this a few times lately. It may not make difference at all structurally, but appearance based, my opinion is two 45's is much cleaner.I would also, (personally again) gusset those corners for the sheer fact of being safe. Once again, probably isn't needed, but whats a little custom gusset gunna hurt?
