Bobtail Range Rover Classic's

(1/4) > >>

Jake:
I'm considering cuttting a classic up soon and was wondering if anyone on here has any pictures of their own bobtail's, including where you cut and how you stitched it back together and delt with the fuel tank.
And before you say it, yes i know my work has made one of the most famous bobtailed Rangie's but i want to see what other people did with theirs (remembering that it wont be my work building it for me  :wink: )

Range Rover Blues:
Well firstly do you want a pickup or full cab?

2 or 4 door donor?

Jake:
I've got access to a 2 door and i'm planning on leaving the rear seats in (for now) so i'm not interested in tray back's or pick ups.
There's loads of pictures of bobtails around the net but i'm interested in build pictures and details.

Range Rover Blues:
On a 2-door, if you want it to look right then I think you'll be cutting the outer panel just behind the wheel then re-make the flange and bolt the rear corner back on.  The inner panel leaves you a lot more choice but I'd be tempted to cut the back end out and move it as one peice up to the wheelarches.

The roof will probably be best cut further forewards, due to it tapering near the back it's hard to make a neat join.

Bobtail:
Theres a really good site about bobtailing a Rangie but for the life

of me i can not find it at the moment

Will keep looking and post when and if i can find it

I think its the bloke on here with the bright orange ninety

so if you can find him its on his sig as he did one as well

Also i have chopped up two, two door rangies mate

And its not that hard get a grinder ,cutting disc and off you go :D

just remember to double check all measurements

if u want to chat mate my numbers in the reps section

cheers

Jim
