Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"

4 those still following......workin on tubs....pics are right before welding middle seam.....u can see on the corners at board level the 1 1/4" flat bar .....its on all 3 sides...it will serve as the "hidden" flange to bolt to wood.....the corners will be trimmed flush...tubs are 15 1/2" wide...3-4 " wider than necessary but I'm anal about where bed strips fall....this put them where they don't fall right at the long edge of tub..........more later..........

Re: 68 aka "Chained in Porterbuilt Prison"

Then went to side marker lites and probably don't need to explain this except in last pic u can see how much easier gas filler will be since floor is raised completely above lite opening.....will do this on other side as well to have charging inserts for batteries....trick but been done by many before me!! For those looking close, i will have to move this "arm" inward some but I dont have the billet markers in my hand yet to check the thickness...Oh yeah Boyd tank coming...will have about 2-3" drop in hose from gas filler to tank fill opening ...should fill ok!......more later.......jim

This is such a cool build. Glad I've been able to follow and get some neat ideas for when I get started on mine. Great work
