That's the first of these trucks that I can say I like chopped! That is going to be the coolest truck in the northwest when it's done. Thanx for posting it guys...Vernski

Thanks. I think what it is that makes it look right is the top is not over chopped. So many custom cars and trucks are over chopped. I hope to have it at the Cardalene cruise this year.

Well worked on truck and watched the game. Started the front mounts for the bed. If my wife starts the fire in the garage after work. Just maybe I will have a warm shop b4 I get home from work. Two top mounts with a bolt and rubber in between. Should work ok. Just might have this step done b4 next weekend.

Well working on the wheel tubs. Trying to keep a soft edge. Trying not to have that square edge that you get from sheet metal. Casey said to go to harbor Freight and pickup a Tubing Roller. Just money But works great.

G Man · 02-25-2013, 12:11 AM

I hope to have one done by next weekend. Going good.

G Man · 04-24-2013, 10:04 PM

Thanks for the kind words guys. Its been a very productive winter on the truck. I have worked just about every weeekend on it. This weekend I should have the last mount for the bed done. All mounts are in rubber. I will try to have some pix later

G Man · 05-07-2013, 11:52 PM

Well my wife and I did a little landscaping so the truck and the Bob Cat had to share our time. But here is some pix of the bed mounts in the rear. I am trying real hard to mount the bed in rubber. I think I have done it.
