CJ-7 World Cab in Dub

I came across an ad for Race Sport lights in Dub's LFTD&LVLD magazine with this CJ-7 World Cab in it. The World Cab has definitely been hacked a bit, those aren't the factory side windows, and the doors are standard CJ round corner doors, so they've done some mod to the side panels to convert it from the square corner doors, but the roof panel and shape up the rear corner are definitely World Cab.

You gonna make one like it?
 
I bet you could play 100 yards of football in the dark of the night with that double LED lightbar option!!!
 
Looks photoshopped maybe? The two gutter mounts for what I assume would be a rack of some type look to go nowhere? The placement of the side window looks awfully far forward to me to the point the moulding would be against the door frame? I see that the door is cracked open a bit (why?!?) but even still, the top corner of the door looks like it would be all up into the side window.

I can't make it out, but the mounts for the lights look to be identical, yet the top one comes down on a curve in the top where the lower one hits the windshield. In the printed version can you see better what's going on there?

Still cool to see, of course, I'd love to be wrong and come up with more pictures of this rig.
 
I think you might be right. The scan is a good representation of the printed page, so there's nothing else to be seen there, but if you compare it to this photo of a CJ7 World Cab on a TJ there are just too many things that aren't quite right.

Even if it is, the idea that someone went through the trouble to do a very realistic photoshop of this setup is pretty dang cool.
