[eds13]

i can give you more pics once i do some more stuff to it. lol prolly wont have too much more time to do anything until monday. i'm picking up the bed rails this afternoon.

[DJButton]

bed rails ftw!

[yessir240]

very jealous, I have been talking to my friend about making his s13 hatch shell into a truck for drift/track

[Bumnah]

i think it should be titled "Project Yeeehawwwww" as only a cowboy can just tear through a car like you just did ed.

[keith0486]

hey need an idea for a back window i would have to say get one of them sun roof from a hatch so it can be open and closed dont im not 100% sure how that wold work out or how it would look lol just think it would be kinda kool tho

[AZhitman]

Just caulk some plexiglass in there... Keep it cheap and light.

Eddie and his old man are too freakin' cool.

[eds13]

hahaha thanks Greg, i might do that plexiglass thing. sounds like a winner to me

it should be about perfect at the top. all the way back and up strait... should be at the bottom same as to the back seat.

Dang I wish I was down there to lend a hand... or get in the way, just not be plodding thru my mundande existance. Let me know how it goes monday man!

[eds13]

i'll update as soon as i can. monday night i'll hopefully be able to get another good chunk done.

[Jiggyfry]

Very cool project!

+100874 for originality!

Go to a window replacement store. They should have pieces of plexiglass there, so you don't have to buy the whole sheet.

[keith0486]

hey i was wondering are you and your dad goin gto leave it like a truck bed or close it all in. cause i think it would be sick if u made it just like a truck bed so u can put things in there.

[eds13]

yep, we are planning on makeing the bed very accsesible (sp) so we can put whatever in there,

[MaximA32]

Your dad looks like Mr. Wizard with those goggles on.

[SirSilvia]

see if you can have some one custom make the SilCamino a tonneau cover, that'd be sweet. I was just thinking about this earlier, "...hmmm a 240 that you can haul shlt in"

[keith0486]

thats sick go for alil drift while u go get the groceries in it lol

[eds13]

"The Ultimate Grocery Getter!" and yeah i would like to put a bed cover on it.
