Any chance that one of the 4 door guys can tell me if the upper door hinge needs to be moved down or is it just cosmetic to match the other side?

mcbassin · 02-27-2015, 12:09 PM

Killer build! I'm going to follow along. I'd sure like to build one of these....one of these days. Keep up the good work

cooperhw · 02-27-2015, 11:07 PM

That is awesome. Serious slice and dice. And I thought I was not skeeerd of jumping in the middle of a serious build. Heck yours makes my project look tame. Like it.

Mikieb510 · 02-28-2015, 11:23 AM

Thanks guys just trying to build a driver truck I can use to pull my other truck with. As you can see it kind of got out of hand

Mikieb510 · 03-01-2015, 06:50 PM

Got the rear of the cab floor from the 2008 blended to the 72 halfway before i ran out of welding gas

It's done so that the window can be rolled down on the inside.

Number98 · 03-01-2015, 10:13 PM

thank you sir I've been wondering what the purpose of it was.

Justin@EntropyRad · 03-02-2015, 01:14 PM

Crazy project!

Mikieb510 · 03-03-2015, 11:38 PM

All i can say is wow the door is a little bit overwhelming to start building but thats my favorite part

**71blksuper4x4** · 03-07-2015, 12:54 AM

Keep it up on the door. Mine took awhile, but its worth it.

Mikieb510 · 03-09-2015, 11:08 AM

And we have swinging door shell!! Also if any body has any 3rd door hinges im in need of a set.

Mikieb510 · 03-15-2015, 06:58 PM

Well i decided to get the frame under the truck so i could decide what to do for a bed

flashed · 03-15-2015, 09:02 PM

That is going to look amazing .

Bagd72Chevy · 03-18-2015, 05:34 PM

I'm curious, what did you use for the B-pillar between the drivers doors?

Also what made up the front half of the 4th door?

Thanks,
Ryan

Mikieb510 · 03-19-2015, 09:36 AM

The pillar is made of a piece of 3x3 3/16 square tube that I got from a buddy of mine. As for the front of the 4th door it is actually the rear (latch side) of a passenger side door that I had to hack apart. I had an extra set of doors from my other truck I built a few years back that were in poor shape.

Mikieb510 · 04-05-2015, 10:22 PM

Well got some work on the door done today, not much time to work on it lately.

mcbassin · 04-06-2015, 07:53 AM

Nice work on the door. All that extra work will pay off when it's done.

That's alright. You know what THEY say? Too much "playing with ur own junk will make you go blind". Just sayin

Mikieb510 · 04-30-2015, 09:39 AM

Bolted the front end on to move it outside and decided might as well throw an old door skin on

**Hart_Rod** · 04-30-2015, 10:18 AM

Mikieb510 · 06-02-2015, 01:43 PM
