Re: 53 Five Window Beach Cruiser Build Thread

Hi Mylow,

I read through your thread prior to joining and must say you have done an incredible job. Much of my build will ultimately mimic yours so please don't hesitate to throw out any feedback you have. I attached a pic of the floors and the corners looking down from the inside. The firewall has been covered by riveted sheet metal by the prior owner and I have yet to remove it. It is safe to say I have the same repairs to the firewall corners as you previous tackled. You will also notice the lower pass side door in this pic which needs replacing as well. Pretty rough. The sheet metal alone I priced at around $1200. I have found cabs only requiring a corner or something small for around $700-$900 delivered. That makes the choice pretty easy, but in the past I have preferred not to give up on original pieces. This one is probably too far gone though. Since you have done most these repairs, I am real curious to hear your perspective.
