Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Dave don't get me wrong. I'm very happy to have all this work. I feel really lucky in this economy. It's not affecting me like other repair and body shops. I've talked to other guys that do what I do, and they are busier than ever too. I have to charge more per hour for working this hard. As far as hiring some help, it's not going to happen. I did that at my other shop, and he cost me money, and slowed me down. So I fired him. Especially since he didn't install a air bag correctly, and the truck was towed back the next day with a blown air bag. And this was after I asked him to check the bag clearance when the truck was aired out.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
If I could I would. At least I won't have to keep an eye on you to make sure it's done right. Besides the commute for you would be a *****.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Did a little finishing to make the bezel fit flush. I have a little more welding to do to fill some of the gaps I missed. Then I welded up the holes in the fender, and pulled the dent in the door out and welded up those holes. I put only one nut to hole the bezel and stuck the tail pipe in there to see how it will look from a distant. It's only held in with vacuum hose wedged in to hold it in place. When welded to the exhaust pipe it will fit perfect.

I used to hate Cragers because everybody had them back in the old days. Now I love them. I would love to get them in 17"
