Seats to upholstry lady next week

Been thinking of this rather than traditional half doors......thoughts/advice ?

Only because proper half doors cost a fortune and think I will feel a bit unprotected with nothing there.
These can be made in house for a song.

you could make a killin on those doors

Bubba · « **Reply #28 on:** November 22, 2011, 08:38:59 PM »

indeed if you can make them in house for a small outlay there would be a small but willing market

Try Jeeptubes................. for ideas and plans.......... they supply just the tube for fenders and doors in the US but I find them good for ideas

Bulldog67 · « **Reply #43 on:** November 26, 2011, 11:15:54 PM »

I have only so much space, there has to be some reality on what i can keep, so big stuff that appears pointless has to go, but if you want a crate of pointless lookin stuff just let me know

TBH the point of gettin the spares was to sell to try and recoup some of the hideous outlay, but if i aint got a fuckin clue what a sheet/lump of metal is i cant sell it or use it

Try crawling under/over/in/out/trough a CJ7 for a couple of weeks ferchrissake
