like redzook make an extra cab

i tried to do a photoshop version, and turns out that the pre-runner(desert racer) look would not suit a zook.
maybe just go with an extra cab like every one else says.
if i find a pic, i'll post it.

I was thinking of an extra cab anyway.That way i can still fit a full internal cage so i can use it for the winch challenge series...
Is anyone good with photochopping????

To much farkin around then,I have to build full internal cage so i wanted to it all in 1 go.Plus if i build a cage for the standard interior then when i chop it it will have to be changed.

Do you mean something like this one?

Nice, but a bit less cab and a bit more tray would be even better.

ITs hard enough to have a chick in a Hard Top As Is Let Alone Taking Away the Option of Layind Down the Front Passengers Seat.

yea good point. by the way there is more space in the back if you push both front seats right forward.
