lambo doors

so i was scrolling through some pictures and saw some trucks with lambo doors. I dont think my current build will be that radical, but wouldn't that be an awesome AD truck. maybe someone has already did this but just throwing the idea out there

Re: lambo doors

From the responses it appears that lambo doors aren't appreciated on this forum, LOL.

Re: lambo doors

Seems to me, they would work well in a parking lot. When some fool parks too close, you can still get into your truck. My mind is just abuzz. Where do you get them.

Re: lambo doors

Junkyards mostly haha

You can find kits on places like summit that work with any door. I think AVS sells a universal kit as well.

Re: lambo doors

Abetter plan might be remote controlled gullwings at 70MPH you could hit the button and fly over traffic.

Re: lambo doors

I think roll up doors are the best answer. Windows are overrated anyhow.

Re: lambo doors

Ok you guys. Some well intentioned fellow posts a thread and you guys crap all over him. Is that any way to act?
Lets see now........Lambo doors on an A.D. On second thought, maybe he deserved it.

midget did say he would not be doing it to his truck
and i've never seen a lambo fab job in the 47-59 forum

we get lambo doors on new cars in our shop, mostly bolt on kits for new mustangs
usually the only one that likes them is the owner and they always have chrome foil hose wrap, chrome foil wire wrap and most of jc whitney's other plastic dress up parts on their cars

now true gull wings on a truck would be alright if done well/right

Re: lambo doors

I tried to photoshop an AD with lambo doors but my program shut down and gave me a virus.
