At this point everyone started calling it 'the bath tub' or 'the hot tub'. Guess it does kinda look like it. We wanted to leave as much room for body panel work as possible. The sides and rear will each have a body panel that is about 22" tall.

First diagonal is in place. This will not only add strength, but will protect me from having a rock come thru the body panel.

I finally got the roof bars bent and tacked on. They really improve the way the rig looks. Guess it doesn't look so much like a 'hot tub' now.
