WOW!!!!!!! This thing is awesome. I love it. If you would have showed me that color on a color sheet, I would have never though it would have looked that beautiful on metal. Sick, just plain sick.:hail: :hail:

Here are a few shots that I could find of the hinge set up. We designed and fabbed the hinges specifically for this application. I do not have any pictures of the inside of the truck, but a lot of work went into strengthening the area where the hinge mounts.

Is the rear door skin scratch built or a modified front door skin?

The amount of fab and the quality (as always) is impressive. I can't wait to stop in on the tour of your shop before the Road American event!
