There's a difference between scratching your bum, and tearing it all to he!!. So I'd say yeah, a little extreme. Is it for real, or one of them photo-chopped dealies? Each to there own, but thats pretty extreme.

Photoshopped. Look real close and you can see where it is spliced in the middle of the driprail/window opening. Either that or it is some real crappy bodywork.

Not very practical. Then again, do you like looking through slits? Was a nice PU truck till someone did that to it. Everyone does it differently and everyone has an opinion on how it should be done. My .02 of course.

Yep well spotted Kev,

Plus the shadow looks worng. Look closely, that puppy has been lowered in photoshop too.

also the background in the doorway seems to have been duplicated in the chop job.to fill in what would have been where the roof was beforehand.

I am glad not to live in Ill, I would have to raise the top on the 36, stock is only 11 1/2 inches.
