Re: progress pics. of my 48

Interesting truck with some out of the box thinking.

RRM if you have driven a chopped AD truck as many miles as I have the reasoning behind the extended doors and cab is readily apparent if you want leg room and to be able to stretch out. I've probably had a dozen different seat combination's in my 48 and still have never been as comfortable as I would like to be.

I wouldn't mind seeing a few shots of how you extended the doors and how you extended the cab.
