Flipped!
« on: May 20, 2008, 08:27:56 PM »
 Flipped my first Gen, now I plan to make it better.
 I caved in the roof, the doors are totally tweaked, windshield shattered, but being a first gen, the mechanics are perfect. I am going to make some sort of EX-O cage to replace the cab, and I already have an Idea of what I am going to do, but before I start my work, I would like to know if any of you have had any experience with cutting the roof off and fabricating this type of set up and if you can post up some pictures of your work. I also will make "half" doors out of the  doors i tweaked when I flipped. First Gens all the way :turtle:
I've got the most liftedest truck in town, that little jap truck done stand no chance gainst my Chevy. My Chevy gots a V8 more lift an bigger tires,and an exhaust system, whats yer tuna can got, a V4, and them tires look like they is offa Saturn Corulla. The dealer instulled my lift, so ya no its done right, you just try to foller me throo them rocks an see what a reel truck can do.

 See here is the thing, I want to keep it just barely street legal. I want to cut the roof at the A-pillar and still retain the windshield and the ability for the truck to harness a full door. When we pulled the truck out of its hole and back on its right side, I jumped in and kicked the roof back out to the point where the only thing that tells the truck suffered a flip are the tweaked doors and lack of a windshield, pretty sick. I just need a new first gen windshield. What are  the commiefornia regulations for "street legality", they only seem to care about emissions. I now have to make a truggy...BITCHIN'
