Re: Shaved Drip Rail Pics for AesC10s
Angle grinder w/ cut-off wheel. Did a couple feet at a time and tacked it together as I went. The thing is if you just shave the rail, the door corners look like garbage. So they have to be rounded IMO. I've only done the pass-side door, so I'll include pics of both sides so you can see the diff. I don't have any pics of the rail shaving in progress but I have a few of the door corners. Some of the pics are messed up (before the digital), but you can see what they're trying to show.

Re: Shaved Drip Rail Pics for AesC10s
Do you have any pictures of the back of the cab after the shave? This is something I've been contemplating with my project and would like to get an idea of what it would look like.

Re: Shaved Drip Rail Pics for AesC10s
I don't have any recent ones that show the back edge very well. Here's an older shot of it.

Re: Shaved Drip Rail Pics for AesC10s
You are doing some great work on this truck! I like the door mods you have done, I had to think twice if that is how they came or what before looking down at the rest of the pic's. Keep it up!
Also what are the front wheel openings from? Kevin LFD Inc. Last edited by Rokcrln; 03-19-2006 at 12:46 AM. |

Re: Shaved Drip Rail Pics for AesC10s
Go for it! I've never seen another 60-66 done this way. Where can we see pics of your truck? I don't think I've seen a 60-66 sectioned before either.

Ive got to order some new cab corners my old ones were rotted and then ill post some pics of the section. also have a little more work to do on the doors. Heres a couple of crummy pics of the truck before the section You can see with the top chop why i wanted to section it, the body just looks too fat in the middle...
