    Yeah, I actually like that better than my fenderless version. I see what you did there......separate tub, roof and pickup bed moldings. Excellent from a production point of view and for swop ability, but getting that extra body seam to sit right might be time consuming. And do you have some kind of seal between the two moldings or do you propose a gap? I'm guessing the back of the cab/tub acts as the front of the pickup bed yes?

    Like the filler cap panel, hard tonneau idea. Very practical. Are you thinking straight sides to the bed ala Aussie Utes, or tapering the body to the rear? You can keep straight sides for more cargo room if you deepen the inner wheel arch reveal. Hold on, that sounds confusing.......keep the inner arches (where the fenders bolt up) dimensionally in the same position as an existing FF Coupe body. That would allow the use of stock rear fender moldings and existing running boards would all line up.

    Martin.
