Decided to skimp on a stand so I dug out this old engine hoist I bought probably 10 years ago and never bought a bottle jack for it to make it work.

First attempt at using a bead roller ever. Only had about 20mins to mess with a panel. I made a ****ty Ohio pineapple. Lol

Not much progress. Worked on making a table for the bead roller. Did a little planning on what to get done next. Got my gas tank back from my buddy who welded it up. Decided to rig up a top plate and add some air pressure to check for leaks. Didn't find any. Ready to install it in the next couple of days.

Currently the casters don't lock. I was planning on swapping a couple of them out that lock but so far I haven't had an issue with it trying to move. I wish I had more time to keep learning it but I need to just keep working. Planning on doing some quilt pattern on the center of the tranny tunnel and some of the floors |

Got busy today on correcting some previous mistakes. Think I got them sorted. Started on the passenger side floors. Decided to be conservative with the bead roller for these two panels. Plan on doing more on the other parts of the floor.

Looking good man! Good job on the floors, that bead roller will make me tough.

Cut the **** out of the factory hinges and got them to clear the tires. Going to brace them up more and probably add some gas assist lifts to it to limit the travel and hopefully keep the hood up. Big relief that they fit cause I got $400 estimate from Porterbuilt for their hood hinges + 4 other hood plates since I will have 3 hoods soon (gmc apache, Chevy apache, and factory). I was going to order them but unlike most on this forum, I'm not very impressed with their stuff. Another local member on here spent thousands on their front end and nothing fit. It all looks amazing but all had to be modified to actually work.

Picked up some 8' bedsides, some extra bedside pieces, some smaller stuff, and an aluminum 63 grill for $200. Should have enough lower bedsides to fix the body on my panel truck now. Only 3 weeks till the show I'm trying to make it to. Crunch time.
