It was cool for a minute, then he sold it not even a year later. The guy who bought it (not on Mud) recently removed the roofless tub in exchange for a complete one.

Here’s a link to a very high-end topless 55 build

I've committed to cleaning up my rig. Since I tore all the wiring out, I've passed the point of no return. I've owned this wagon for 19 years and it's definitely time. I've attached some before pics and some of the teardown. I've got all 4 doors and the tailgate sandblasted and primed. I'm planning on a coil/link front and SOA rear. I'm going to keep the 350/ toyota 5sp setup for now. When the time comes, I'll get lockers. ($$$). I've been through a lot with this truck. Most of my 20's and 30's(lots of fun).

Remember a topless 4-door Pig at our North Rim Pig Party. Father and sons team from the San Diego area who fired up their parts rig just to make it. Drove it out, which amazed me just looking at it. Don't have access to the drive that'd have any pics I took. They also gifted Bonnie a nice cast iron dutch oven after she admired their pizza making for our potluck.

Thanks @RUSH55 if I go that route mine will be completely topless door tops gone and all. Then weld up drivers rear door make it a 3 door with bench’s along the back on both sides. Full cage and a soft top like troopy top. Kind of like the low rider truck krew kut from the 90s.

Was a guy on here from Hawaii who had a topless Blue 55. Forget his name . Also another guy with tan 1 I believe from Cali with a wild suspension LS and full roll cage with a full snap top. @RUSH55 good at finding dis stuff

Pig party 2018 had a blast met some great folks! The 55 performed almost flawlessly had a blown fuse, and lower radiator hose issue ! San Diego to Utah round trip was smooth sailing

That's Pat's from Summit Steel in Oceanside CA. Amazing build on a Pig I believe he had since high school. Pat also attended out Rio de los Pinos Pig Party in a red/white Pig. Sold him my '69 parts PIg, which he passed along to someone else in SoCal.
