Everyone,

It has been a while since I updated this thread. I went round and round on drag reducing designs and ultimately landed on tapering the rear sides of the cargo area in.

I have been working on this intermittently in my spare time, attached are some photos of the work in progress.

Upcoming plans are to finish the welding and build a new rear door, a single door to replace the factory barn doors.

Most importantly, my five year old renamed the vehicle "Burbie."
