Initial fitting of the roof took awhile to get the rear edge lined up exactly flush with the lower part of the cab. Once it was in place I made a few tacks, then had to reshape the body line on both sides for a flowing shape through the two panels.






The sides had uneven shapes meeting at the seam from top to bottom.




Adjusting the tightest part of the roll in the body line.




Fixing an overlap from the metal being stretched out due to reshaping.




The slow process of a row of tacks, then planishing the tacks, grinding them nearly flat, and repeating until it's welded solid.




Welds flattened with 36 grit, taking care not to cut deeply into the surrounding area.




36 grit scratches removed with 100 grit.




DA sanded with 60 grit to prep for epoxy.
