A different approach to a LWB to SWB conversion

Taking the cut out of the middle of the bedside like others you can see an interruption in the flow of that falling body line. Not in my case. I'll take a close up side rear shot to show you the flowing body line.

It is easy to work that last inch of body line the perfectly match the whole bed side.

I also finished up the left side marker light.

The falling body line is the part I am curious about.

Is this something a qualified body man would find easy.? Do you guys just bang it in line with a hammer and dolly of some sort.?

I'm planning on doing the frame cutting myself and to get a mobile welder to come by and weld my frame. And I'm looking for a bodyman to do the bedsides for me. So I'm just learning how it is done so I can find someone that knows what they are doing.

Really nice work here by the way.
