Got a donor roof today. Cut the A and B pillars. Will be welding within the next day or two.
Was in the process of exo-caging, notice the tube work from front to rear, the joke around the shop was I needed to hurry up and get it on before I flopped. Guess they were right.

if it weren't for the other photos, I would say the light pole fell on his truck and he was just making it sound good by saying he flopped it. hahaha.

Turning around on a dirt road. Blipped the throttle, broke lose. No shocks and chevy 63" springs. Rear tire caught a small hole, truck squated when I hit throttle, and unloaded when the tire hit whatever it was, and stood up and went over. Whole thing happened at around 5 mph. Sucked.

Lol. Basically. Imagine a truck doing a donut and flipping over.
Now imagine a taller truck doing this slower. It was really lame.
