Yeah, was the Top2Bottom guys. They were in a big rush and doing the vid posting during the trip so you could understand if a couple of mistakes were made.

Looking so cool! How bout some more photos... how did you get the 45 cab in around the roll cage and is the cab removable?

Chur, the roof and back are two separate pieces so I just cut holes in the roof for the cage to fit through then bolted the two pieces together in place. Its kind of half exo-cage and half internal roll cage.

Could remove it still but i'm not likely to;

Awesome

thought I was going to have to blow the dust off my 40 series
and take some photos for all the 40 lovers like myself out there, there has
been a bit of a drought recently for us :mrgreen:

Good to see it still looking mean and in one piece MNC !!

So cool. My ideal set up for a cruiser! Just the half doors?
