Re: 1970 SWB / Roadster Shop Fast Track Chassis
Such a nice foundation. That & the updated drivetrain will have you wanting to drive it full time.

Re: 1970 SWB / Roadster Shop Fast Track Chassis
Nice, seems a shame to cover it up with a body!

Re: 1970 SWB / Roadster Shop Fast Track Chassis
That is something. You will need a big mirror to carry around so you can slide it under the truck and show it off

Re: 1970 SWB / Roadster Shop Fast Track Chassis
So just out of curiosity, what’s the old chassis going in? It looked like it was in really good shape.

Re: 1970 SWB / Roadster Shop Fast Track Chassis
This will definitely be an incredible build once its finished up and far beyond anything I could do..
But, I noticed one thing. Just wanted to bring it to your attention incase maybe it could cause an issue later on. Correct me if I'm wrong or maybe its intentional (?) Looking at the side of the truck, the bedside body line is lower than the cab. In mockup of the new bed floor, are you building the cross sills as it sits in the pictures or will that change later on? I just wanted to mention it, not to point out an issue with your build but to save you added work incase you hadnt noticed (?) Beautiful truck man. I'll be watching this one for sure.

Re: 1970 SWB / Roadster Shop Fast Track Chassis
In the photo the bed is off the shim packs and only roughly in line. My plan is to build the mounts with shims under them so I can fine tune either way.

Trim Hole Filling
I saw this on You Tube. Helps keep the heat down and warping.

Template tire flaps
Template some under bed "mud flaps" to keep those rocks off body. Also serves as lower body stabilizer.
