  • Patent number: 4654946
    Abstract: A conventional production two-door motor vehicle converted to a four-door limousine by severing the frame of the production motor vehicle near the center of the passenger compartment into a forward frame segment and rear frame segment. The longitudinal roof, floor, and rocker panel extension sections are welded between the frame segments to lengthen the wheel base and the passenger compartment. Pillars are welded between the roof and the floor of the forward frame on either side of the forward frame segment. Front doors are attached to either side of the frame forward of the pillar and rear doors are attached to either side of the frame rearward of the pillar. In the preferred embodiment, the forward doors of the limousine are forward doors manufactured for the four-door version of the production motor vehicle. The doors removed from the two-door motor vehicle are modified and are used as the rear doors for the limousine.
