Thanks. I haven't had a lot of time but I'm trying to finish the bed. I cut the little tabs off the tailgate that the chains hooked to when the gate was down. I rewelded the braces that hold the new gate checks on(or what ever the hell they're called) and plugged the holes in the side of the gate. Now on to filling the holes that are left and evening out the gap between the gate and bedside.

very nice

shrunken66stroker · 04-10-2012, 10:13 PM

I welded and drilled a tab where the stealth latches seat and made it part of the mount for the gate link assembly.

shrunken66stroker · 04-11-2012, 12:05 AM

Tacked the patches for the notch and hole.

*R.A.D* · 04-11-2012, 07:26 AM

can't wait to see the whole package

Nice work!, I like all the custom mod's you have made. I almost made the front wheel well modification on mine, and now wish I would have. but, IT'S JUST A WORK TRUCK!...

McMurphy · 04-11-2012, 01:50 PM

It's easy work but time consuming. The fab on the bed is close to being done, so it's on to the body work and prime. Then the hood mod.

Oh man oh man I cannot wait to see what your hood mod is going to be!
I just hope it isnt something that I wish I had done !!
....or cant do ....
Ok now the suspense is killing me.

eyes are glued to the screen

shrunken66stroker · 04-13-2012, 07:53 PM

Thanks guys. I've got this other project eating up all of my time still. It's really close to being done. I sprayed a sealer coat on it today and Monday I'll paint it. Maybe I'll slip my bed in there and prime it.

What is that? Looks like a MGA.

Alan's Classic · 04-13-2012, 08:15 PM

Nice progress and thanks for the pics of the tubs. I tattooed that on my brain for later use.

shrunken66stroker · 04-14-2012, 09:48 PM

Strodder · 04-14-2012, 10:09 PM

One of my next jobs coming is will be a Red 59 MGA. I'm doing the final assembly and detailing.

*R.A.D* · 04-16-2012, 06:26 AM

busy guy.........

shrunken66stroker · 04-20-2012, 07:17 PM

I started working on the pinch weld situation. I've always thought I'd cut it off when the time came. Instead I think I'm going to make it match the angle of the rocker by scoring the back side and hitting it with a hammer till it matches the correct angle.

shrunken66stroker · 05-01-2012, 04:04 PM

Plan b. Never did like that pinch weld.

jchav62 · 05-01-2012, 04:12 PM

Looking killer!!!

shrunken66stroker · 05-01-2012, 09:30 PM

Thanks, Joe! Now for the other side.

*R.A.D* · 05-02-2012, 06:14 AM

there ya go take no prisoners

shrunken66stroker · 05-02-2012, 09:53 PM
