Pictures of my First Slantback Attempt
Hey! Sorry it has taken me so long to get these pictures posted... Though I am a little reluctant to show them off, because it is not quite finished. I have not get the rear window in, the latch is still sitting at the shop, it is still only primered, and I have not got all of my seals finished.
I will be making a some more of these to sell, but they will not be exactly the same is this one. I am going to make the glass in the back a little bit taller, and I am also going to change the way that they top of the slantback meets up with the top of the hummer. Those two things bother me a bit, but other than that I really like the way it turned out! It looks like it will be completly water tight when its finished, and it really gives the SUT a tough look! I have already had countless people come up to my truck and ask me about it, and people really seem to like the look!!
I made this one out of 1/8th in. aluminum, and I think I will be using the same material in the future. There are also a couple pieces of aluminum angle on it for strength! I have not weighed the top but it is not too heavy... I can take it on and off by myself, although two people would make it easier!
Let me know what you think!!
