here it is almost done just a little fine tuning with a straight file and it will match the other side. 2nd pic is of the door edge

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Also got the speaker hole in the door all filled in

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I had to do the same thing on my truck. someone had two holes in mine but the work was a good in the end.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Yesterday I finished up the upper door channel and fixed the drip rail.
Drip rail was way off it was not right from the factory it was too high in the front then sloped down towards the rear. It did not match up at all,but with a little work I got it all straightened out. I marked it in the pics to show how off it was.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

This is one of my favorite builds because I know every time I check it out I'm going to see some fabrication going on, great stuff.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Im with you Xeen, I love seeing each project he works on and the amazing progress he makes with each step! Killer work!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Great work on the drip rail. Keep on hammering!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Thanks guys, this drip rail was pretty much the end of crew cab specific stuff.
I feel like I am finally over the hump on the conversion part of the build.
But there is still a long way to go!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I did find some time after work today to strip the 3rd door to bare metal.
Hopefully I can get some epoxy on it this weekend.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Finally the last peice of rust is gone from this truck the passenger side floor board was baddly pitted from the under dash ac. I bought a counter parts patch panel and I am less then impressed with it, but its better then the current floor. I got it all cut out and the new section tacked in but ran out of time before I could finish it up.

Totally dig how you went about truing up your door gaping issues.
Using that info on mine.
Thanks

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Cool sub, looks good!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

I got the idea from somebody here on the site it worked out really well.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Finished up the floor patch today

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Nice work!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Love this build!

I've been enjoying checking on this over the last few months, you do great work.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Project is coming along nicely. Wish I was over the crew fabrication hump already. Mine has involved both rust repair and fabrication, so you got it made lol. Trevor

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

thanks guys

I also did alot of rust repair i'm just past all of that. I checked out your build it's lookin good!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Just found your build today, read all the way through awesome job, cant wait to see it finished.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Started working on the firewall welding up all the holes I don't need.
I have a old air unit I am going to install but I don't want to use the outer block off plate so I am working on a way to mount it without seeing any bolts or nuts.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Soon you will be all done with the cab and you will start to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
You are almost to the fun (and the expensive) part of the build. :lol:
The cool part is depending on who you talk to the cab alone is now worth anywhere between 5 and 10 grand just as it sits.
:metal:
