    G'day! It's time I start another mod, this one being an Autobello Piccolina Van Body (Credit will be given! :) ). ANY HELP WANTED whether it's with coding, or anything.
    Oh yeah I said any help is good, and it is, but I would really like to make van sliding doors out of the pre-existing suicide doors IF that is possible:confused:

    You'd probably need to cut the door right up to the smoker windows, so the door sliding motion will clear the opening. You can also make the front part of the door open after the sliding door, being front hinged, so the opening can be made wider for larger items. For the jbeam part, slide nodes and rails will be your best friend. I'd look at the Lansdale to see how it is done on it and try to replicate it in the Piccolina. Other option would be a pantografic door, like the ones found in coaches. It is a simpler layout, and will, in the end, also open to the back.

    Yes, I thought I would have to modify the body.
    P.S. Merry Christmas :)

    Maybe the JBEAM, but overall, the "only" thing that would need modifying would be the door
