The owner says, "They just get full of mud". It should still look OK tho.

The vents actually do serve a purpose. I uterised mine and kept the vents. They're there to help the cabin "breathe" when you have the fan on and also stop the woober woober when you have the window down. If his heater or A/C aren't as efficient or he gets a bad resonaince in the car with the window down then open the vents up again.
Good chop though. Well done.
Cheers

Nice job, i did a very similar one to my 2dr rangie, moved the rear top frame forward to use as the new B pillars or C pillars in your case.
Should look good when its finished.

They also let you shut the doors... again, breathing.

I might suggest that he create some breather holes under
the window sills at the back (or something like that). Ideas?

No, not my client. I sell tyres. The bloke that can do the chops
works nearby my shop. I don't know how much he charges.

Are they keeping it a tub tray and bobbing it or cutting the tray of and putting a flat bed?
Also did you see if they welded it all up or used metal epoxy to glue it together and only put a few tacks in?
