Any chopped FZJ80s? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I've seen a couple pictures of chopped FZJ80s but most of them either chop the back hatch or keep the window frame and doors. I've only seen one that cut off the windshield frame and got rid of the doors.

As you can see, the windshield frame and all doors except the passenger side rear are trashed. None of them will open, so it all has to go. They could be made into half doors since most of the damage is around the glass.

I figured there would be a bunch of these but haven't had much luck finding any I liked.

We drove it 45 minutes home in 29* weather.

Looks like a nice start on that one...do you have any of it finished? Thanks!

I've been wheeling with goggles in the glove box for several years. Just in case.

Here's another...
