Hmm. I really like the idea of that. It is along the lines of what I was thinking. I would equip it ideally with full length side side cabinets. I have never ran a shell period much less something like this. First problem I see with side cabinets is blocking all light into the bed. I wonder what the combo of side glass and only half cabinets is like. I was considering the leitner rack with side pods, but was already planning on engineering a solution to cover the roof. This could be pretty idea.

Since you are so quick with photoshop any way to con you into rendering an all white one with white top on the JT???
sorry this was the best I could do. Don't know how to turn black to white very well.

i painted my first shop white was mostly concrete block wall. Painted the ceiling too. HOLY COW WHITE PAINT MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

I'll do the same with this cap. Paint the whole inside white including the cabinet sides then mount some lights.

Yup. Lots of white. Even more when I get the shell. Kind of like this: Except it will have lots of Mud too...

Your avatar file is so small that was the best I could do.

I ordered mine with no options other than the solid white doors. I want to use the roof channels to mount stuff either inside or out. I voted against the cabinets as ideally I want to see if @BuiltRight could assist in creating a molly based structure inside the shell but above the truck bed. Then I can attach things to both sides of the Built Right system and access readily needed items from the shell side doors. Stuff rarely needed would get mounted on the inside. This way I may be able to skip my need for the Decked system and keep the bed opened up better to add a fridge and other larger items.
