have you thought about making a little trailer or camper out of the section you cut out? no, as I think they look terrible.. haha. but that is my take on it. it will be chopped apart quite a bit regardless so I can keep my car looking factory by using the nce rear corners for a smoother finish. I hate the nissan/toyo chops you see here where they jsut slam a flat plate in, doesnt flow well

That's one way to get at the exhaust system... Looking forward to seeing how the back end comes out. -Jon

Alright, Back from Canada. was a good month off. been a bit of a slow start. jsut sorting a mig welder out to start tacking it together. I began today making templates for the front of the rear doors to fill the gap after the hinges are gone and hold it in place. ![[Linked Image]](http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k48/cruisn/Pajero%20Round%202%20rebuild/WP_000891_zps12bc3e7d.jpg) How wierd do the doors look hanging there.. ![[Linked Image]](http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k48/cruisn/Pajero%20Round%202%20rebuild/WP_000890_zpsc9b823fb.jpg) pulled all the gear out of the door so I can begin cutting the panels for fitting. ![[Linked Image]](http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k48/cruisn/Pajero%20Round%202%20rebuild/WP_000893_zpsd5c83ae4.jpg) Another cut line: ![[Linked Image]](http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k48/cruisn/Pajero%20Round%202%20rebuild/WP_000894_zps71ab3fda.jpg) pulled off a cover and found some orignal untouched paint. love the colour: ![[Linked Image]](http://i85.photobucket.com/albums/k48/cruisn/Pajero%20Round%202%20rebuild/WP_000892_zpsf881e750.jpg)
