Amazing transformation. Makes it look much better,I always think they look a bit top heavy with the high roof.

Dodgerover my low roof is junk, ex ambulance, more holes and vents than a Swiss cheese and a massive patch over what I assume was once a sun roof or roof hatch? It's distorted badly and missing ribs etc
