Re: Nsane 52' Chevy Truck!
Thanks guys! I'll start a build thread on the "other" truck soon. The owner wants to wait a little while to start a build thread. The rendering for it should be finished soon.

Re: Nsane 52' Chevy Truck!
Thanks, buddy! I kinda wondered if you had used a bead roller/panel flanger, but thought, "Naw, you wouldn't be able to get those neat curves." Learn something new every day.

Re: Nsane 52' Chevy Truck!
Thanks, I built another firewall for my Dads 53' in the shop yesterday. I'll post pics of it next week. We're going to put a different design in it. If you have any questions about anything just ask.

Re: Nsane 52' Chevy Truck!
The frame has hand prints and dust all over it in the pics I'll post better pics when we finish assembly and give it a good wash before bolting the cab back down.
Thanks DeWayne |

Re: Nsane 52' Chevy Truck!
would you ever consider coating the frame or firewall with raptor? Why or why not? I heard that this stuff is great.

Re: Nsane 52' Chevy Truck!
I would never use it on the firewall or frame. I only use it for the underbody. Paint just looks alot nicer in my opinion.

Re: Nsane 52' Chevy Truck!
looking vey nice, what do you plan on doing for the upper radiator hose? I have the same setup and used a adjustable one from street and performance. a little pricey but it works so far, maybe one day i will finish my project and get it on the road.
