I have done the search. Does anyone have a link to a build thread where they Dovetail the rear (seems like I shouldn't have to put "the rear" but some people do the front and say dove tail) with pics, that the work,...I find a lot of discussion on people starting to do it and then go a different direction. Or old threads that the pics don't work on.

Not sure the one you are looking for, but the YouTube channel bleepin jeep just finished a dovetail build. Granted it's pretty hardcore, but it was pretty cool following the process.

The scorpion? That's a tube buggy starting with an XJ chassis. While he did dove the front the rear is all tube.

that is an OLD pirate build thread. I don't think I've ever seen another full body dove on a Cherokee, he even kept the glass. There isn't going to be a build thread or "step by step" for something like that. It's pretty simple though

remove all interior panels
cut out the wheel wells
measure in how far you want to dove
bust out the sharpie and draw some lines
measure again
cut some triangles!
bend metal, secure metal, fill in the gaps

Wast really looking for a step by step but more of a whats something I am going to run into that I haven't noticed. Something for reference.

You don't see many, since really they're not worth the effort.

Be the martyr. Become the reference.

If you can figure out how to make a rear hatch to fit that it would be very impressive.
