Just thought I'd point that out. LOL

Looks good without the top. The tailgate idea sounds cool too. Keep up the awesome work.

Well I figured it would bother you with those perfect oem chevys you have. I really had a hard time with it too. But the rust in the roof line and gutters made it justified. At least thats what I keep telling myself

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
