My Burb Chop Top

i live in cromwell, down the street from where they hold the Greater Hartford Open, or whatever they call it

the inside, wheel wells still arent closed, i most likely will just be making cover plates to put on everything including the 'extended cab' area if you will on the side

i wanted a little bit of stability on the floor and i wanted to make it easier on myself so i put this thick rectangle steel and welded it at each rib to the floor, then welded the cab back to that so that i didnt have to specifically fit it to the ribs on the bed, it was tough welding the cab to the bar, there was nothing to really clamp down, so the welds got kinda boogerey, grinded it a little, then seam sealed the **** out of it

my wheel wells were rotten, 2 more years, prolly could have just kicked them out haha

anything rustyish, is just the little bits from grinding, i should have swept them, just gotta hit them quick with a wheel

got the fuel cell in there now with perfect clearance with the tailgate and such
 
nice and 2nd the more pic --- i have been one of the people looking for a crew cab to chop and this looka like a cheeper way as crews (3+3) are just priced nuts
 
A burb will get you a shorter wheelbase too. Box the frame. Now or later.

Keep it light. I've seen two burbs shear sector shafts. 4 doors is cool, weight is bad.

need to finish up welds and patch those holes inside, they were from the original placement of the burb speakers
