You could without the middle front panel and doors but then it would be a Cup version....not the same.

Thanks. I actually considered putting it on EvilBay for $1500 when I was done but I like it too much

Nice job o' prickly one. And about $1000 total cost. More room for adult beverages for the next trip to Thomas.

Now you can take JIM with you on road trips. Should fit perfectly.

Looks super! Would you be able to provide dimensions? I am very interested in crafting something similar in my garage. i have looked for some time and love the doors, grab rails, etc... but it's too much $$$ and too much wood. I would like to do something similar, but not the same. All that said, your's look awesome!

Now, the kid is pretty useless and costs more than Cactus's beautifully rebuilt RSDs. Now you've got me thinking. Maybe I should get rid of the boy, buy RSDs, and save money in the long run! Maybe the rear seats are useless.

The RSD really transforms an interior. Looks great.

I understand that, but how much are the doors from the dealer? My point is make the wood part & then purchase the hardware & doors.

It's one of those things that if you make it, there is market for it already! If I didn't have a cage in back, I would have a RSD!!
