Got this thing dropped off Sunday. Started it yesterday and finished plumbing it this morning. Its different for me, but it really grew on my after I set it on the ground.

The front is laying on the exhaust, and the back the axles are on the frame. It could go about 1" lower in the front and about 2 in the back if the exhaust gets moved up and the rails notched out back. Maybe they will come back.

Here it is stock.


Being cut.


Laid out.

Sweet! Hope he fixes the rear window trim. That would drive me nuts.

The trim is okay, it just needs a new gasket. The bottom clips over the gasket, and the top near the windshield tucks under it. That part is missing in some areas. The trim is in decent shape.

I would be more worried about the missing trunk lid.

^ Lol. They brought it without it because apparently it only opens about a foot and makes it hard to work on. They do have it.

I'd also like to see it notched, to at least sit level. We'll see if he will go for ti at a later date. He sounds maxed out as it is. He flinched at the total.
