It's scary because I did not realize you weren't going to have people sitting on it while driving. Now that I know you're not, it makes a lot more sense.

I like gio's idea for the doors, so you can keep them shut while driving.

Hmm, no doors for the cabinet. That`s not going to work...

First i painted the sides today:



It came out "good from far but far from good "...

Then it was time to remove the rear bumper. I didn`t need to remove a single bolt, i just ripped it off:



We placed bets on how much is left of the support. Well, i won, because i said nothing is left...



Me removing the few bits that were left:



All the crap that came out:



And some paint:



Will add a new steel rear bumper on monday...

Test fit of the mattress. Still need to cut it down:



I think the spare needs some paint:

Great job on that so far. It's come a long way from the start.

Fabricated a rear bumper this afternoon. Mock up:





Welded and cleaned up:



Painted:



There`s an offroad event coming up this weekend, that`s why i`m going that crazy with building all that stuff that fast. I`ll also get a propane kit at the event...
