LOL, i think you just like to see how many attempts it takes me to make something !

raull · 05-15-2012, 11:14 AM

practice makes perfection !!!!

watahyahknow · 05-15-2012, 12:33 PM

there are those rubber stoppers that they use for hood alignment they usually screw into the bodywork at the corners , you could use those to hold the sheetmetal in place

**67cheby** · 05-15-2012, 12:52 PM

i have decided i will start tonight i am going to build the top cap like Keith drew (thanks for the idea) and also build new filler panels that i can step roll also and weld it all together to make one big upper cap/filler/hood latch !

watahyahknow · 05-15-2012, 02:02 PM

you might not want to trow the old stuff away maibe theres someone interested in the setup you have in the truck now and you get some of youre investment back on it

raull · 05-15-2012, 02:01 PM

wohooo !!! lets roll

**67cheby** · 05-15-2012, 02:04 PM

Yeah.... Shawn's truck is amazing and changes all the time. He's owned that truck since he was 16.

raull · 05-15-2012, 02:22 PM

That is super smooooth , no doubt !

**Dieselwrencher** · 05-15-2012, 04:45 PM

Have fun man.

I was thinking about doing something like that on mine, but I think I'll get it running first. Tired of stacking stuff around it.

big_al_71 · 05-15-2012, 05:23 PM

I also like the way Keith drew up the filler panel, it gives that finished look. I cant wait to see how it all comes together Mike.

YBNORML · 05-16-2012, 10:40 AM

Looking good!!!!!

I don't think I could ever work on a used car lot, I would bring way too much stuff home
