    Does anyone have any input on installing a steel hardtop and doors on to a fiberglass body? Is the body strong enough for this. I have a 4WD Hardware body, 1956 model. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks, Doug

    I don't see why it wouldn't work. You might need to put a reinforcement plate behind anywhere that bolts through the tub, but it should work.

    Should be fine. Just make sure the places it attaches are reinforced.
