Haven't been able to take pictures, will take some tomorrow and will update, but there is no particular progress, just the welding of the pillars has completed.

Sherwan, don't tell me you've hit snags in the project. Hope its not being shelved half way, as you had started off with the point of no return.

How's your eye now ?

Sam haven't hit any snags, all working good, its just that the driver nearly totaled the Honda City, which i use as a daily driver, currently i'm trying to get it fixed. That has caused some delays, but not to worry all on track.

The eyes are all healed up, the healing process finishes up within 2 days. All good now.

Thanks for asking

Update, slow but working.

Well thought out salvage of body pieces. Good job, slow and steady wins !
Are the rear seats going to be in the original position or pushed back for more leg room ?

Oh, one more thing, You going for a straight back or a curved rear screen ?

Curved screen would look better... My opinion.

This is a wonderful thread. Bold decision indeed and nice work going on.

Please get eye protection. Both while welding and grinding/cutting.

Looking smart in that camo hat

New Roof Welded....

Looking good, Project is gaining some shape. what would be the new color of the roof?

Flat roof with grooves looking great...

Actually can't decide whether to paint the whole vehicle or just the roof:P

I think the vehicle's color is in good shape, try the roof alone in Stage 1. And you can tune it later with all new paint in 1 color, go for some bright color in Stage 2

Something like this :). There was a post on 4x4 forum a Toyota Pickup with these tyres, they really give a tough look!
