A chassis on a chassis - only a tight arse Brit would come up with a monstrosity like that.
Great work you are doing [thumbsupbig].
Ha. I look at it as they've already provided the longitudinal rails for the rear tray. An "integrated" design feature.... [emoji16]Quote:

Had a bit of a play today. Bolted up a spare windscreen, sides and roof, to see how the lines look and visualise how the cab extension might work. The extended cab will be about to where the blue steel section is sitting on the chassis, or just forward of where I cut the side panels.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9a524ed338.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...ec31722d6b.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...a6f053163f.jpg
looking good Chris.
Will you use Series 2 wagon rear doors?
Hi mate. Thanks.Quote:

Looks Great.
Mate added a extended cab to his Stage 1.
Try and get some pics.

Radiator mounted up. I have used a Toyota 1HZ 75 series radiator as they are narrow enough to fit between the foot wells and also readily available. Rubber mounted using the std radiator mounts.
A thermo fan fitted from a BF Falcon, being the go to retro fit fan for hot rods etc. Seems quiet enough and pulls a heap of air. I made up a shroud surround up using cut and folded 1.0mm gal steel sheet.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...e8a2e31ae0.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...9d414d4c04.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...6c3a6f6485.jpg
