Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Good looking product as usual, just the kind of clean, well thought out item we've come to expect from you. Looks great to me.

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
Here is some progress from the last few days, I have been installing the Mar-K trunion kit. Nice setup ! what I didn't like is the exposed bolts that you would need on the outside of the tailgate. I welded some nuts on the outside and then built a sheet metal cover to box over them

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
I have also been working on the roll pan, I brought the bumper brackets through, tucked the bumper in tight. When I got that done I didn't like being able to see the bumper brackets when you were looking down on it so I built some bumper splash pans. I also built a new liscense plate box and raised it in the roll pan, I also shaved the backup lights

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
this might not look like much but this was about 12 hours worth from Sat evening 5-1am and Sun morning 8-12, tackling some problem areas that had been bugging me. This bed had set forever on the ground and had of course crumpled the front bedside bottom, so much that we couldn't even really tell exactly how they were supposed to look. Gary Angel came over Saturday night and helped get them positioned and braced up ! I designed a matching rear panel for the tailgate and Gary bead rolled it for me.

Re: Slosh Tubz SEMA 2015 Build "BOOSTED BERTHA"
I finally finished up the bed and got it too Gary Angel of Street Driven Customs so he can start the bodywork !
Now, onto the cab ! First shaving all the drip rails. I am welding in round rod so it will overhang just slightly over the doors instead of being perfectly flush. I do have a couple rust spots to fix above the windshield also. This is my first drip rail shave so I am learning as I go. I am also roughing in the door gaps as I go, I will let Gary do the finishing work on those I am just getting them close |
