I need no doors really.

That thing looks like a wind and water leaking mess. I can't imagine how goofy it will look with the roof and doors removed. An optional set of half doors for this would cost about $7k dollars. I wonder if it uses a Gladiator frame, or if they cut and spliced the Unlimited frame?

You would think that the glass on the middle doors could be full size without the need to narrow it to allow for it go all the way down. The need to narrow the glass on the rear doors is because they are angled at the bottom.

Good eye, they definitely would have been cooler front/front/rear, I wonder if it has to do with the back seats. They should have had buckets on the second row like the mini van that it is

I think it's pretty cool. Wouldn't you rather have this than a standard 7 seater or mini van?

Good catch. They should have used front doors for the middle doors. Or maybe not since the front do windows have the windshield angle factored in. Probably just should have eliminated the fixed glass on the rears and fabricated a nice big regular square window to fill that space. That's what happens when you unnecessarily "cut corners".

Overall, from what I can see, the build quality looks okay, but the rocker panel looks excessively wavey. I don't see a spliced frame, but the resolution is not good enough to tell. So my guess is that it's a Gladiator frame. The rear would have to be bobbed off though. They probably modified the Gladiator's rear doors to be the center doors.

I wonder what the Gladiator tub looks like on the Unlimited chassis? Gotta do something with those leftover parts. I guess you could make a trailer out of the bed.

I always tell everyone 12 but in reality who's gonna complain about 10.

I definitely can see the use here tho. Would be cool to see a gladiator tailgate spliced in there as well.
