Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Yesterday I finished up the upper door channel and fixed the drip rail.
Drip rail was way off it was not right from the factory it was too high in the front then sloped down towards the rear. It did not match up at all,but with a little work I got it all straightened out. I marked it in the pics to show how off it was.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
This is one of my favorite builds because I know every time I check it out I'm going to see some fabrication going on, great stuff.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
I did find some time after work today to strip the 3rd door to bare metal.
Hopefully I can get some epoxy on it this weekend.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Finally the last peice of rust is gone from this truck the passenger side floor board was baddly pitted from the under dash ac. I bought a counter parts patch panel and I am less then impressed with it, but its better then the current floor. I got it all cut out and the new section tacked in but ran out of time before I could finish it up.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Project is coming along nicely. Wish I was over the crew fabrication hump already. Mine has involved both rust repair and fabrication, so you got it made lol. Trevor

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Started working on the firewall welding up all the holes I don't need.
I have a old air unit I am going to install but I don't want to use the outer block off plate so I am working on a way to mount it without seeing any bolts or nuts.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Soon you will be all done with the cab and you will start to see the light at the end of the tunnel.
You are almost to the fun (and the expensive) part of the build.  The cool part is depending on who you talk to the cab alone is now worth anywhere between 5 and 10 grand just as it sits.
