Re: Ol Virgil

Re: Ol Virgil
The first cut is the hardest, Went pretty quick with the cutoff wheel on the grinder. The tape really helped with alignment. One note to self, Blue Tape on a Blue truck is hard to see! Try Green or yellow next time.

Re: Ol Virgil
I did get the front half stitched up this weekend. Got 2 sets of those clamps at Harborfreight. They were a life saver. The inside of the bed was actually a little easier, the floor was a little heaver gauge metal.

Re: Ol Virgil
This took a lot of stitching, not sure this is the best rought to take, Thinkin finding a short bed would be a whole lot easier.

Re: Ol Virgil
Nice work! I am really enjoying this build.
The truck looks like an old altered wheel base dragster. ![]()
