the top will be built to go back on and there will be flandges to take off the top part of cage...when done it will just look like a bobbed cruiser.....

if you're going to cut it and make a removable top, then I have to ask--whay all those crazy
tubes on the outside? Why not internal? Stronger and lighter.

the cage will be removable too.. i just like the exo cage look.... and i'd like to keep the body as clean as possible......

look at 1/4's rig he beats it to hell, but take off the cage and you still have a clean truck!!!

For an exo I would vote for 1.75 120 wall also. Anything over that adds alot of unneeded weight on an already heavy rig.
It has held up pritty well on are comp rig consierig steve rolld it about 13 or 14 times last summer alone......

Three times now I have helped to hack up a vehicle, and every time the plan was to save the top to reuse it. Has not happened once yet, everyone gets so damn excited to be topless and boobed they forget all about the top.

So if you beat me to it, (still planning to bob the scout top to match) post some pics.
