this thread makes me want to buy a beater and do this. but before I did that, I'll need to learn body work 101, welding and fabrication. Looks great.

Most people dont even look in Exterior section that much..More looking in the "whatever" and the "Snapshots/Videos" sections..

Do you have a latch/striker kit? I got bear claws and the install kit from www.alteredimagecustom.com

Its a great kit, I love the bearclaws, but I have heard alot of trash talk about them. The thing is, they aren't as forgiving as stock latches, which is a great thing when it comes to suicide doors. If you get your doors sag free, and they open and shut consistently, you will love bear claws. Let me know if you want pics of my setup when the time comes to hook the OEM handles back up again. I make mine work with a bicycle brake cable, and a few cable guides off of an old bmx frame I had.

Damn, We gotta do the other side too!

That wont happen for awhile!

Yes, I have the striker and latch, Auto loc..So, We'll see how these work!
