| Scott,
Thanks for the pic. I wonder what the finished product will look like. The owner did the suicide rear doors I see, I wonder how he strengthened the B and C pillar areas. Quote: |

| Is that the Air Tank Mounted in the front above the engine....Looks like it Tie Strapped to the front Brace.
That takes some big ones.....I would love to find a Salvage vehicle somewhere and do something like that to it. I couldn't bring myself to cut up a new ride. | |

| Chopped Xb
yes above the motor he has one air tank strapped down then I believe two more in the back. He trailered the vehicle there one because of the rain and two because it was not done. There was a whole in the rear door jam so you could see the tire. He did this so he could roll fully aired out in the back and not rub. He has some nice plans for his vehicle and personally Really excited to see it completed. | |

| I would love to chop about 2 or 3 inchs out of the roof height. But not a full convertible. A body section might look bad ass, but thats a lot more work than a chop.
It that the airtank tie wrapped on the core support???  | |

| Looks wild, but there must be massive body flex. I hope he's doing some serious reinforcement. Looks like the gas door is getting shaved... where's that going I wonder? | |

| Scion Xb Gas Door
the gas door was moved directly onto the other side mounted inside the car in the back corner on top. Normally this would not be the safest thing since we would have a closed cab but since its open it would be safe. | |
