Re: my 98' Streetrod build
Bed still needs more clear to float out the tail lens areas.

Re: my 98' Streetrod build
man! this ting looks sweet!! there are two thing you did that i was planing but didnt know how to pull it off yet, the extended hood, does the extensin hit with stock hinges? if so, wha did you do to make it work? and how was the shaved mirror accomplished? i like how you got the line in there and when i was looking at mine today i was wondering how to make it work with the weather stripping.
|
Re: my 98' Streetrod build
Thanks,
The hood will work w/stock pivot points,you just have to not follow the radius of the glass too closely. Give it some room but follow the shape.Since the stock hoods are nowhere near the correct shape to just extend back using the existing radius,there is quite a bit of template work to do. The mirror block offs are done like any other except you inset the plate a little to create a line to match the upper body line,then blend them together. The mouldings will have to be trimmed to fit and probably glued in place,since they no longer slide behind the mirror. Thanks for the word. |
Re: my 98' Streetrod build
Definately something to be proud of. DROOL!!

Re: my 98' Streetrod build
Grate build, just sat in the office for an hour reading threw it. Your truck looks grate, love the color. I was wondering how you are going to finish off the dash or if your going to leave it open? I saw you had some templates made up in one of the pics but there wasn't anything after that.

Re: my 98' Streetrod build
I thought I had this pic somewhere in the thread but I forget.
I will have some wedge shaped covers over the top of the two pod areas made w/the same material,10 gauge aluminum. http://i223.photobucket.com/albums/d...1/stuff095.jpg Thanks for the good word. |
