Not much of the yellow beast lives on Steve.

This is my normal ''tough' street baja style.

Is this to be road registerable or pure off road?

OK, here's the bottom.
With this lower chassis rail design we have named the rails 'Phillbars'
They are tied into the front end braces and chassis/body bolts, then pickup both roll cage A and B pillar footplates and finally into the torsion housing at the rear. Very happy with the simple yet stiff design, and Westi, boxcar Willie has left the station!!!

Sweet tough setup. Nice skills
Mat & Phil ,
Don't get me wrong as i'mm lovin your work but the back top corners of the doors and pillars would look a hole lot nicer if the lines flowed through with the radius
Andrew
Don't let body work get in the way of real suspension travel

Ha Ha Ha Andrew...I've been saying that and complaining generally about the lines of the chop since we started the build. We have radiused the rear corners of the cut, you should have seen it before...radius door tops, square edge through the B pillar, radius along the old rear side window, square through the C pillar, radius of the rear .... man O man, the joys of a can opener, and this one was done pretty well !!! I also proposed a cab look alike windscreen frame, but as you can understand, compromises must be made and $$ spent have to be shared around.
