Re: Project " Melting Pot"
Looks good, I think you need a chrome ashtray & glovebox to go in there.

Re: Project " Melting Pot"
Slower than I like but it's progressing...
So are you putting a new bedside on or just took that one off to work on it? Looks like a SUPER clean bed. Door looks great too!

Re: Project " Melting Pot"
the bedside was replaced because i have one that looks better. the bed is real clean and no rust but still needs some work. its not hard to make something look good if its in great shape already. next thing to do is find wheels and i still need headers.

Re: Project " Melting Pot"
I know there is a member here who was making BB headers that fit w/out going below the framerails if I remember correctly...custom made and pricey but they looked great and everyone who got them said they were VERY nice. Can't find the link now though...
