Think I would cut it to keep back seats unlike the roughtrax one which is chopped to a two seater
Do you think that would leave enough deck to look balanced??
I will need to get photoshop out to see.

to be absolutely honest, no. but i'm not a big fan of double cab pickups anyway tbh. they don't do anything well, they seat 5 but not comfortably, (and the rear seats in the surf ain't that comfortable), they carry loads but not with a massive load area really. They generally have long rear overhangs (i know the surfs guilty of this too), i don't really see the point - either have a proper 4x4 with an enclosed load area that will either carry people, or stuff with the seats folded/removed or have a single cab pickup which will carry stuff but not people. I guess in some situations a double cab pickup is more practical, and i will admit double cabs generally look better than single cabs.

If it's going to become an ongoing project vehicle that's something slightly different i guess, it becomes personal rather than practical then. In which case it's down to you to decide what you want to do with it.

totally agree but it would be as much because I fancy doing it as anything
my truck needs a spruce up the engine is first class but body starting to show it's age so I thought why not give her a new lease of life
Mind the more I look at the roughtrax two door the more I like it.
3.0 td pickup hmm. The wife can taxi the kids around
