    Looks like you may have managed to keep its original shape OH, no you haven't, it now will be straighter and leak less than the original

    Cool.

    The factory single cabs are definitely too short to allow a comfortable driving position for any of us taller drivers as our heads tend to hit the corner of the cab above the curved window !

    If my 110 had an "extended cab" such as the one you are building, I'd have found a way to keep it !!
    It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

    Still doesn't address the arm against the door problem Although will be much better with more stretch.
    Got me thinking would be good if we could come up with a longer door. Then you could still put the elbow out and would be quite comfy and not get hung by that stupid door latch.

    Well, its done, just clean the gutters out, fill them again and then hand it to the old boy to make pretty with



    Pop rivets anyone?



    Not real happy, think it looks to high, but can always make another if it ****s me to much

    It'll still be tight width wise, will be fitting a pad to the pillar
