    Well you partly answered that
    1 unique
    2 I had this truck 3/4 into a rebuild when I came up with this
    3 always wanted extracab body on a standard cab frame with a double bobbed bed like I've seen done with 84-88 trucks
    This gen extracab is so much longer though it would cut into the bed wheel wells if I did that swap
    4 an extracab rear window is still just a slider, this whole window will go down and the gate will still drop open...
    5 because I can...
    6 because no one else has!

    Actually that should have been the number 1 reason

    I always say when asked "what are you doing or what did you do this weekend?

    "making sparks!"

    It's def going to be unique when finished, good work so far!!

    My friend did something similar to his 93 4x4 extra cab back in 96, except he welded the gate shut and added the 4Runner power moon roof as well. Ended up adding 6" to the cab over all and then just bobbed the front of the bed. Could barely even tell since it was an extended cab, but having the power rear window and sunroof was awesome.:clapping:
