Re: Buried to Bagged 1972 2wd
Forgot to mention I made the rookie welder mistake, short sleeve shirt and lots of welding = a funny sunburn on the bottom of my left arm.
 One more pic of the stoopid hole deletes......dang welder.

Re: Buried to Bagged 1972 2wd
are you going to weld the rear notch in or just be left bolted? obviously welded would look cleaner but can it be left just as a bolt in?
that PB stuff sure looks nice to work with. |

Re: Buried to Bagged 1972 2wd
The only bright side is more truck time. Sure sucks about the job though. Hopefully things work out Friday and I can swing by the shop.

Re: Buried to Bagged 1972 2wd
Aint that the truth. The other day I went into Dairy Queen and they asked if I would donate to some kids fund. I says what the heck and gave them a buck. They gave me $2 in coupons. Then on my way out I'm in the giving mood so I jump on the Blood donation bus and gave blood for the first time. They gave me a ten dollar gift card for Lowe's.(I work there) The guy inside the bus says he lives around the corner and has a New dishwasher he needs gone so I got a Free new dishwasher. I think I'm addicted.

Re: Buried to Bagged 1972 2wd
I did a little fabrication work on the firewall and windsheild frame. It was nice getting back on the body after spending so long on the frame. The driprail needed to be smoothed out and it came out pretty good. Also deleted the ac holes.
This is all new to me so don't be too harsh!!! I have moved forward with trying my hand at fabbing up parts, my first peice was the windsheild frame patch where I had to cut to lay it back. I made a template and then cut it out. It fit pretty well on my first try.

Re: Buried to Bagged 1972 2wd
I finished deleting the drip rail/wire loom gutter and moved to the cover. Pay no attention to all the junk in the truck, it was cleaned out!!!
I used a rubber mallet and a concave jackstand to pound the cover into a slight bend in the center which in turn made it bend to just the right curve to fit the area to be covered. A little prefit and very minimal grinding got it just right. I tacked it on and started measuring my cowl to see exactly how I was going to make it look right. That my friends, is next weekends project!!!
