My DD LWB to SWB build

hey whats up guys i say its time time to start my build it was given to me by my father the truck is a 87 lwb 350 tbi all electric inside, has factory A/C, truck runs good but im not a lwb guy its waaayyyyyy to long lol so my plans are to cut the frame down and make it a swb gonna take out 14'' out of the middle and 3'' out of back i gather all the parts already so lets start, my plans are to paint it factory white again with a 4/6 or 5/7 drop and drive the heck out of it since its gonna b my DD i want the truck to come out when its done just like Classic87/Anthonys truck




this is what it look like b4 the cut down oh and thats my lil helper Bella





i took 14'' out then brought everything together trust me i measured it like 20 times b4 i made my cuts lol sorry the welds look ugly but they will hold lol after the grinding it down they came out nice and i put 2 plates inside the frame to reinforce it






well this is the aftermath after it came out i have more pics of the welds and cuts but its in a diff camera il try to post them as soon as i get it ..



its gonna be a slow build due to work its slow right now since its winter, so pls b patient with and as new parts come in ill post pics of my progress
