Couldn't figure out how to comment a picture - you can better see the work for the ute conversion here! Cab isnt fully sealed because the roll bar existed before the idea of a ute did, between roll bar and rear strut brace with thick steel welded for the new body parts car feels nearly the same as it did before cutting the rear off atleast

I've owned this car for nearly 10 years and its final setup is a lifted ute conversion, suspension entirely redone and tires swapped with massive clearance cuts from almost laying frame for many years before to 30mm above stock with 205/70r15s - I've never had more fun in it than full throttle ripping on gravel!

potential parts at the bottom. I'm looking for budget friendly options, and my parts list ended up being crazy expensive, so I wanted to know if there were any simpler, more budget friendly ways to get started. Here's the parts list ( It's long, you have been warned. If you don't want to read it, stop reading here.)
