Re: 65Custom Build Thread

OK these bring everyone up to date as to where I'm at in the build I know that this is not all that exciting but it has been almost three years of work so far. Maybe i can be of some inspiration for someone who has one that seems like it may be too far gone so you can see it is possible to save one. and yes I may be a little crazy for trying to keep this one alive.

door gaps are really good and the doors decent but will be reworked I think I will reskin them since going that route is a bit cheaper than new shells

WOW! you've done some serious metal work on that cab. I'm impressed with the results. Keep up the excellent work. I'm looking forward to updates.

What did you decide to do with the bed you bought out of Texas?

Really dig the close-ups on the fab work - showing the rust challenges.

Please keep us posted, step by step - lots of excellent information!
