fk me dead
hey man thats pretty mad. Me and my cousins did the same thing more or less, except we bought the car and had it stripped, the roof cut out and the diff welded up in one weekend. the back doors are welded shut but not painted,the cab isn't sealed but its got a wooden tray in it (though this wasn't done on the weekend). But needless to say it looks like shit and is probably rougher then you could imagine. I might even put some pics on this site.
