Just wondering, why did you leave the rear hatch window ?

I would have sealed all the rears off. I like the concept of the panel van

Paint is a little loud, but very nicley done & looks quality.

Wheels But to each their own.

It has a nice Lowrider appearance & should get alot of attention at shows. Overall good job IMO, just not my style thats all.

I wanted the rear window for contrast. If I was going to do anything it would be to clear it so people can see the suspension mods and interior.

what kind of suspension are you running ? some sort of odd cantilever setup that makes the rear useless other than for showing off the cantilevers , bags and tank(s) ?

either way i'd love to see pics of intricate air setups.

The wheels are an acquired taste, but the paint joblooks like it was done really well.

One thing I always wonder when anything gets cnverted to a panel van and/or has loud paint/is wrapped... Is it for a business use at all, or are you just going for the look of a modern classic roadster?

To answer a few questions:

The back is getting filled up with 4 hydraulics pumps and a stereo system.

I didn’t built it for a business. What happen was, (readers digest version) I took out the back seat to get my bicycle in but then just kept going.

I can understand the negative react from some people. The XB a little Scion, part Lowrider with a Mini Truck paint job and Paneled. I thinks it’s a bit of a shook all at once.

Props to all the work you did! I've been waiting to see the end result ever since you put the pictures on the Scion Night web site.

I never dissed the car just clear my own name here. I just said the wheels were not to my liking. I would never diss on another Scion owner. Originality & customizing to your liking is what owning a Scion is all about. Not everyone loves my xB, but I love it & that is all that matters. A good job or looks nice is always much appreciated, but either way I built it to my liking.

Keep doing what your doing jay_berkshire, no matter what peoples opinions are. I like what you have done & so do alot of people on here. But everything you did is not going to suite everyones tastes. Keep it going & continue to post up your progress
