I bought a 36" press brake, so I'll make new floor boards (three piece, because of the torque tube) and the firewall. I have a small slip roll I will use to make the hump. A friend of mine has a 10' brake and is going to make the 18G channel pieces so that I can build the bed. Then it's door skins. Having motivational problems when it involves body work.
How's things with you?
gaining slowly sort of steady by jerks. I discovered my pontaic engine was full of water like 3 gallons in the crank case so i am thinking about building a an inline six and a camaro t5 5 speed.the frame is getting closer I need to make a rear cross member then pull it apart for clean up. then the fun body stuff.
