How to test the "A"pillar/roof of a 67 cab!

Thought I would post these up for fun. It is a 67 small window that will be donating its B posts ofr a crew cab build and I wanted to test the suspension on my rock buggy at the samer time







No cabs, kids or animals were harmed in the process!

Yet but it has been out in the rain for over 2yrs now and it is just bairly surface rust. I wiped it down with somw metal prep rust preventer a few yrs back and it has worked good. My plan was to pull it all apart and have it blasted and powder coted but now it is up for sale.

And yes it was fun

Yeh once I an felling better and get the B pillars and dash pulled out I will test the center of the roof as well I love low range and good suspension travel. I can get almost 60" with one tire off the ground and the other tree still planted.
