Yeah it's great the windows stayed together. I've had to buy my fair share of new windows in the past......expensive!

Its funny,

I just spent 2 days preparing and painting up my drover 1/2 doors so I wheel with my son (doors on) but still be able to roll it (when the cage is in) and not worry about the tops of the doors (windshield will be down or removed)

Well,

After I had them all finished and mounted up I realised I locked my keys in the house, trying to break I broke the front living room window, cut my hand e.t.c..

Karma is a biatch

Why chop when I can just unbolt a body and bolt a new one on?

How about we chop the Heep instead. After seeing my grinder skills you must be happy to let me hack shiat up for ya?

Why dont u chop it first and if u dont like it, then buy another body. You will just wreck the new body anyway :roll:

I have already choped the Jeep front and rear, tucks the tyres perfectly.
Grinding skills :shock:.

Not enough if you want those 40 mtr's on 17 alloy maller rims!

If I swap the body I can sell the old one. EG a rear door cost 350 at a wreckers!

If u are gona chop the body WTF do u want full height doors for??? they will be sold either way u go? With the money u save not buying another body and selling all the doors will buy u a locker. Then u might be able to keep up :D

It would be a lot cheaper if I just tire a rope to the jeep ;)

Also I was going to buy a hole new car so that I have spare diffs and stuff. That means a spare set to weld!

Swap it. Only takes a day. Every car I have seen chopped has A) ended up looking really rough B) has never been finished C) has never run again.

Find the cheapest 1.0 soft top and swap the tubs.

I'f I do a road trip it will be to vic :armsup:
