Re: 1959 Fleetside REBORN
Nice work. I wonder how that would look on the rear of a 59 fleetside.

Re: 1959 Fleetside REBORN
In the first picture I didn't like the fit, missed it by about 5/16th of an inch.
What was it, oh yah "measure once and cut twice", thaaat doesn't work . Took what was left of the original door, which worked out well for a better fit and tacked it in place.

Re: 1959 Fleetside REBORN
Next came the dreaded bottom and as you can see we took one piece of after
market metal , cut it in half and added 6"s to it in the center.

Re: 1959 Fleetside REBORN
Since the ends weren't stamped like the original I cut the originals out and tacked
them in place.
