I think that looks fine. Just one question. Is that exhaust exiting the body on the driver's side?

yea it was an idea i had it would keep it up and out of the way....i havent actually looked much into the van to see how possible it is...and if it is possible it would probly only work on the passenger side

I think it's doable on both sides, I've been under there and can't remember anything in those areas that would prevent it.

Kevin....that is an awesome drawing! =D> Can you make me one of the SPB with the top chopped off just behind the front doors and with a full roll cage in place?

Running the exhaust through the side may be kinda hard if you have a hitch on there. Here is a pic of the underside of the SPB showing that the leafs are out of the way but the hitch is right in the way. There may be enough room to squeeze the pipe between the hitch frame and springs. I thought it would be cool to have the exhaust out through the side but figured through the rear bumper was good enough.

Looks great Kevin! :supz: How do you do that?

How about changing the lower portion to black and making the roll bar go straight back along where the old roof line would be until you hit the upright and then slope back to the doors like it is?

Looking at the Astro Pickup versions that you did, I got semi-inspired to do a version that I had thought would be kinda cool. Would make for a little more comfortable seating...
