Some feedback from our build:
- Consider keeping the truck street legal. Having to trailer it around everywhere kind of sucks, and it's expensive. (Renting u-haul trailer every time)
- A sawzall works great to cut the roof out, but leaves razor blade edges; make sure you file them down and pad them with pvc tubing or pool noodles.
- With a hole in the roof, storing the truck outside when not gaming it (unless you have a barn/garage) is also a bit annoying.
- Surprisingly, krylon paint worked fairly well for us. It even holds up in the rain!
