It makes the body work a lot easier. Plus you don't have to worrying about warping has much

Re: Starting my 1971 Super Cheyenne Build
Ive been busy with the truck. Almost ready for paint. I built a paint booth to help keep the dust down and keep the heat in during the winter.

Re: Starting my 1971 Super Cheyenne Build
Trying to wrap some things up. Put in my fat mat, headliner, tailgate and mocked up a van tilt column if found at a swap meet. Also started my vintage air. I just want to thank everyone for all the help and support.

Well you are, from the speed of the build considering all the work you've invested to the quality of the final product. Looks factory ..... great job.

Thanks again. I never planned on the truck turning out like this. It was supposed to be just a cool truck but nothing like how it turned out. I've never done anything like this so this forum helped out so much.
