Awesome ride. Love the flip forward hood.
We put the motor in mine last week. Still need some final touch ups before I start her up. We still have a long way to go before she gets done.

Re: Project 7deuce

Heres the start of my trans crossmember... started with 2" tube and an old stock crossmember... I cut the bolt hole locations out of the stock crossmember and made a nice little pad to weld them to the tube..

Re: Project 7deuce

Started building the exhaust... Anyone who has tried to keep the pipes up above the frame rails while running a big block knows how hard this was... My patroit headers are diffrent on both sides so this took some trial and error.. Once I got the pipe cut right and welded back together and smoothed out I painted it with some bar b q paint... I hope the paint holds up to the heat.. Also the ends of the pipe were flared out so the next section of pipe will slip into it.. Bte I tried to have the exhaust shop down the street bend up my drivers side and they told me I was nuts and to just let the exhaust hang below the frame cuase it was not gonna work...

Re: Project 7deuce

When I replaced my bedside it had the inner steak pockets cut off... It bugged the hell out of me so I went ahead and cut off the rest of them.. Also take a look at my hacked inner bedsides from trying to get the wheels and tires up as far as I could... Stay tuned thats gonna get fixed...

Re: Project 7deuce

Finally welded in the inner bed side patch panels.. I had cut the section out to give me room to get the dents out of the outter bed side so I would have to use less filler... More work this way but it turned out better..

Re: Project 7deuce

This mod I stole from n2billet(thanks kieth)... I had some inner fenders that I was not gonna use sooooo out came the cut off wheels.. I should have moved the inner tub up higher but I test fitted the 20"s to make sure they would fit first... This is where I am at right now... I am gonna remove the bed and finish up the welding on these today hopefully..
