The Roof CHOP
|
The Ute as purchased:
The roof had already been chopped But Badly, roof cut in 4 sections and then sections of 1.6 mm steel welded under the gaps then filled with bog filling the gaps |
|
My first attempt to fix the roof, cut
out all the old welded sections and add new steel,
Problem was there was to much distortion from the welding. |
|
Third attempt, cut out all the old roof
except about 4" from the edge
Use a roof section from a sedan, weld in. A small skim of bog around the welds will fix it up nice. |
|
Fitting of the rear window.
after the chop the rear window was long and narrow, so a cut down sunroof was made to fit. The window will open and can also be removed if required |
 |
Three windscreen wipers set up
2 speed wiper motor mounted behind fire wall |
