I almost went with dune beige but decided on the Porsche meteor grey.

Below are some roll cage detail photos. Don came up with a pretty cool idea for the map lights. 4 adjustable map lights and on top the GPS antennas.

Looks great Timbo. You obviously have an artistic eye. We can see it your Cruiser and your shirts.

The wheel base is the same. About 116". Just took about 10 inches off the back is all. Better departure angle.

Timbo,
You are an inspiration for my project!
Question: Why not spring over?

Juane:
Thanks much.
I heard it's more stable if you can keep it spring under.
