Default Taco pics

Does anyone have pics or a link to pics of a chopped XJ that has gotten to the point of the legendary taco where it folds in half due to not having that needed reinforcement from either the unibody or a frame.

I would never chop my xj into a truck and I have never heard of that happening until now, just one more reason not to cut it

haha yea tacos are good....i can't imagine it will actually fold all the way over (because of the front still keeping things some what square) bit i think some serious twisting of what is left of the unibody is realistic.
