C2 Tubbing
Does anyone know anyone who sells a tub kit for a C2 or has tubbed a C2? Would like to see what's involved and how much of a DIY job it could be.

Tubbing it is not a big deal because its fiberglass and easy to cut out. What you need to know is exactly what rear width are you are using. I put the rear in the chassis and then as you’re putting the body on the frame you only cut out as much as is you need to fit it and then add a couple of extra inches for Clarence. Then you buy tubs the width that you need for your job and attach them to the body either with rivets or fiberglass and rivets.
