Actually I disagree about the amount of work. If you get with a manufacturer. Looks like you could make this a bolt on kit with minimum work. Kit would include full roll bar replacement - bolt out then bolt in. Manufactured top then a bolt in bulkhead behind the seat. The hardest part would be drilling holes and fitting the bulk head. I know there is more to it than that but most of the work is custom fitting and modifying existing parts. If you had the all the parts in a kit I would think it could be mostly bolt off then bolt on. Even the side rails can be an option that just bolt right on. you should consider getting a patent on your design.
I know the cost to the consumer would be high but a lot of people would like the whole pickup concept.
Definately get a patent. DC might pay for it just to make it an option like the Hummer SUT.

#2 is the coolest! I also think a patten on it should be looked into.... But sell it ... Because so many "stupid" people sue someone at the drop of a hat now days. If it rolls going down the interstate at 80. Somebody going to need a bunch of attorneys like Chrysler has to cover there A$$. Then again my beer is half empty.

I'd like to see it with only the top in black, ie, no black coloring on the doors. I've personally never been a fan of black or half black doors.

Your right I should seriously look into it ..... and ya once all the parts are made for easy install it really would be a quick and easy to do...

everything is tacked up. still have lots of work but Ive made progress! I know its not the craziest cage out there but im happy with my first cage build.... gonna add the hole thing look in between the two parallel bars.

first bend with this bender ! pretty badass i gotta say


also busted my thumb with the bender... user error










also gonna add handles , tube behind front seats for harness, more triangulation.

thinking bout another set of rails to go on if i were to run bikini top for long period of time, but seeing its my daily driver probably wont sport topples all that much!
