Project: Chop Suey (1990 B2200 - full custom)

Well I haven't been around the scene for along time. I'm currently working on my new project which will be a 4 door Mazda (sport utility?) w/rear suicides and too many mods to list. I'm hoping to have it rolling again for Lone Star Throwdown at the end of February. This first pic is the concept, followed by build pics up to now.


My vision.


where it all began...




the tear down begins






one of many things to fix from the previous owner


bubble gum would hold better than those welds!










additional cab ($125 from a local junkyard!!)


rear wall removed


whats left of the additional cab


test fitting


an idea of what the new cab will look like


2x3 rails welded in for integrity


floor panels removed in prep for the body drop


how she sets right now

Sweet! I hope you can make it come out like the rendering. That rules!

That is going to be frickn awesome. Take plenty of pics as you go.

Insane build! Can't wait to see more progress man.

Now this will be a build that is followed closely!!!!

Following this one for sure. Gonna be really different when complete no doubt.

this is nice i will follow this build let you know they have these trucks over seas

Thanks guys! I'll post pics as I make progress. Currently have the engine torn down and in paint right now. Hope to assemble it this weekend. As for the trucks overseas, they are the same concept but have different lines than what this will have. I just didn't like the way the lines flowed on those, so decided to build my own. Eh, keeps me busy at least!

Hey chpsuey is this ute going to sit on a stock frame or are u going to stretch it?

Very cool
