Just thought I'd point that out. LOL

Oh, oh my.... no, ...I can't look...oh no!... I've never been the type to watch a decapitation like that, but I find my morbid curiosity is getting the better of me. LOL. Nice work. - oh yeah, leave it long.

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

Yes that is what i ment the stock suburban isnt really that long expecially when it is layed out. it looks short either way will be cool i would stay stock length there is one that has been shortened on hub garage and it looked strange

Re: I dont no what I am building haha

Ya I may keep it stock. The one on hub looks strange because the roof needs to be shortened. Here are some pics with the metal in placed and part of the doors finished
