Re: IMPOSTER! ( or hey guys I got a little jimmy!)
Wow, awesome workmanship, loads of man hours.
Insane build, dash, unibody, engine, windshield frame, bed rails, tailgate, insane!! Your last pic, rear bed floor looks high, is that due to tubbed/wheels/low rider? |

Re: IMPOSTER! ( or hey guys I got a little jimmy!)
Thank you! My bed floor is raised 6 inches. I knew I wanted to lower it but I’m actually going to bag it lower than I originally thought. That worked out since I ended up putting in a notch and it’s covered. I’m mounting the air tank to the back of the notch under that bed floor to take advantage of the space.

Re: IMPOSTER! ( or hey guys I got a little jimmy!)
I didn’t have seating so found some today at the salvage. Place had a handful of square bodies and one 68 c10 but no seats. Found one in a 1980 Ford for $50 that I can make work. I originally wanted buckets but now that I’m going topless I think it would be nice to sit 3 if I want. The pattern I have planned it had to be a flat bench, no split benches or armrests.

Re: IMPOSTER! ( or hey guys I got a little jimmy!)
While I was at the salvage, I was geekin out about some of the stuff they had. A 65 Mustang, a 50s Mercedes, and this ultra cool International with aftermarket tool box fenders on the step side bed. Those would be cool on a Delmo style build.

Re: IMPOSTER! ( or hey guys I got a little jimmy!)
This is the seat pattern I want to copy, just in a different color scheme. I've had this photo in my pc for years and years, I'm not even sure where it came from anymore.

Re: IMPOSTER! ( or hey guys I got a little jimmy!)
Working on building a bed wall / cubby hole behind the seat. Could be a great place for the battery or subwoofers or who knows what. Also got one back inner fender notched around the tire and putting the tub back in. I had bad luck trying to make the 1.5” wide splice to fill the gap when I moved the tub in. I couldn’t get the bead line correct at all with the tools and skills I have. I looked and found Summit had a rear tub by AMD for $60. Sold! I trimmed it to fit all the way to the bed, cut the excess part off the bed wall, and started fitting the tub. The part I cut off I can use to patch the other side, although I almost want to get another cheap tub from Summit. Much much faster.

Splicing the other tub in.
