Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

I had built a cart for the entire front clip, but paint is a go and the hood is with the painter. The inner fenders soon follow. Hood fits perfectly inside our beds BTW, a fleetside anyway.

At any rate, I've been itching to build a platform to lay the cab on its back off the cab cart. The front clip cart is no longer needed, so I disassembled it to build the platform. Still cost another $30, but the platform takes more weight.

The platform & cart bolt up using threaded rods, to disconnect from either side (a MUST). With the padding the platform is level to the cart. Should make for an easy transition on and off the cart.

When I'm bored I'll add stakes to hang the fenders, and some eye-bolts to tie down the cab..................Happy to say this should be the last cart I build for this project.
