Was the one in that pic originally a coupe or hatch?

look at the taillights, it was a sedan....
so was the civic in the original post.
sedans are typically larger and have shorter front doors, this means you can get more of a bed out of the 'truck' when you do this kind of work.
IMO using a civic hatch would be just about the most pointless truck ever. (for all of you kids talking about that)
