MMiddle - So you think the ride quality is improved with bags. Cool.

I may come up with other paint schemes as I built this truck, but I had to start somewhere. I'm not totally sold on the idea of a rear slider. But I was thinking that a vertical sliding electric back window would be cool (like the Toyotas).
The CG model looks great and the color isn't bad either. You will need to do a lot of fabrication to get a vertical sliding rear window installed but the electrics are available. As for one piece glass in the doors causing problems I think that's more fiction than fact. That's an ambitious project you have laid out and it will be an expensive one as well. Good Luck and keep us posted!
