You mean like this


BTW almost everything else has been done except the general xB thing. Would need to make it a 2 door first though.

 

Thats been done too. It ended up looking nasty though. Too much like a freakin cabrio VW with the top up. And forget about trying to drive it hard. Can we say FLEXIBLE.

 

Yup, Ive seen almost all of the post ideas, the only thing is the a team was done on an xa not an xb

 

yeah here is the convertible,called the xvertible

the convert is freeking ugly.
Fill the back windows up and make it a ups truck

 

I still want to see gull-wing doors (front and back)

 

From the spot the rice thread

 

here is an XA-Team

 

I hear banjos!! Paint it camo and it's a "Deliverance Van!"

 

Pioneer did the xB 4x4. db drag car. Camo is done, clown car is done, woody is done, convertible is done, Air/hydros is done, rear drive conversion is done, DJ booth is done(over and over).

Seen pics of most of them in various threads on here

 

in the works.

 

a lift off bronco-style rear roof would be cool, making it open deck.

 

I actually bought my BSP xB, to do it AS the A-Team. Changed my mind, when my hubby decided we're doing his instead (which is fine w/ me, lol). Guess there is an xA painted like it somewhere.

 

I've seen nothing about a rear drive conversion or pics of said conversion. Got a link to it please? Would love to see details of such RWD xB. Tanks

 

the rwd xB is no longer an xB it's a toyota minitruck frame , with tabs to weld the xB onto it. weaksauce.

 

OH, I thought someone would run some new frame rails. Do some firewall work and do a real RWD coversion using some mini tubs in the rear. Maybe a small V6/auto/9 inch rearend. Would be a sweet little package if done right.

 

the A team xb sounds SCHWEET

 

How in the heck is what that builder is doing "weak sauce." He took the most logical route to accomplish his goals with the car. I have seen it in person, and I wouldn't have taken a different route if I were the one doing it.

The Toyota minitruck frame is the perfect option. First, you stay brand loyal. Second, you have tons of suspension options. Third, you get lots of motor options. (I think he made a good choice.) Fourth, you increase the structural rigidity and driveability of the vehicle.

I really am not getting what part of the build (other than the hideous vinyl graphics to hide an incomplete vehicle) is "weak sauce." Would you prefer that he stuck with a weak unibody that was never designed to see the kinds of loads that would be applied to it by making this conversion?

I just don't get your statement.
