Re: Project '66 Dirtrod: K-30 Extended Cab

My son and I tossed around a few ideas for shrouds this weekend, different materials and whatnot. Then thought we'd try to fiberglass one after seeing a post here referencing a how-to somewhere.

So...my son made a support frame out of hard board, wrapped it in stretchy fabric, applied a few coats of resin, applied a few coats of fiberglass, trimmed it out, smoothed it with bondo, and voila'...we have a shroud!

We fit it in tonight and are pleased with the result. We're thinking we will probably have it bedlined inside and out to seal it all off...
