I have also decided to not reinstall the back seat assy. Nobody is gonna sit back there anyway. Now I have to design a speaker setup for the tunes.:glasses7:
On the fence about some sort of roll bar. What do you guys think?????
I debated pulling the back seat on my Barracuda. Even though I may never use it, - it tends to give the vehicle a 'street car' look. I was hesitant to cross that line where the Barracuda was going to look too much like a racecar. My Duster is full blown race. There's no way I'd consider putting a back seat back in it.
If my back seat had needed to be re-upholstered I might have left it out. If it wasn't meant to be my daily driver I might have tossed it in order to reduce weight for racing.
You're taking your build pretty far in the direction of a race vehicle. It'd be cool either way (with or without backseat/rollbar). Your suspension and drivetrain mods are part of the reason I follow this thread. The planned body modifications are another reason. I love to see innovation. It's like reading a thriller novel and wondering if things will turn out great or disastrous.
A modified rear seat that is narrowed to fit your wheel tubs would be a cool mod. Even though a lot of people might not realize it's been modified, those that do would spend a lot of time scoping it out if you could pull it off well.
