Re: Finally my own build thread!
Sweet shop, sweet renderings. One question; is it me or does the rendering look like a longer bed than a SWB? Not quite a long bed but longer in front of the rear wheels than a normal shorty. Or maybe I'm just...

![]() Just playing! On another side note hopefully Carter will understand my drawing of the interior and will do a rendering of the interior as well. I am really stoked on that because i know what i want but having a hard time desing it so it flows nice in my head. Also i will have real progress pics hopefully next week. My new tool should show this coming wednesday afternoon and then i can make my inner fenders for the bed and get that all wrapped up. I remade the inside bedsides a little different so after i get the inner fenders made I will snap some pics. Happy Easter everyone!!!!!!! Josh Josh

Re: Finally my own build thread!
a few more pics. The pic with the new bed side is designed so the wood will slip underneath that lip for a clean install. The bedside is just sitting there and i still have to cut out the original bedside and do some work around that. Plus this was taken before the inner fenders were built so now the cutout matches the cutout in the bedsides to the inner fenders. I also changed the way the front bedside panel looks. I matched the clean and straight lines of the new bedsides all the way around. Pics will explain better when i get around to take those pics.

What rolls did you use for the roll over? Do they have them in different radii or did you have them made? Thanks. Something like that might get me further along. Thanks.
