Re: Jesses' 48 PU
Finally installed a floor pan. I used 16 gage sheet metal, made a template off butcher paper, and carefully trimmed the sheet metal. I finally welded it in place today. Solid weld beads on the outside edges and spot welds in the center. I'm happy with it. Will work on the driver side this weekend.

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
Your truck is coming along real nice. Frame and floor look good and solid. BTW I like your work lights, I have the same ones.

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
Haven't done much to it, so in order to gain some motivation, I decided to temporarily mount the cab and bed on the frame. Waiting on the engine to figure out how much if any will I have to push back the firewall and make tranny tunnel.

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
The more the truck looks like a truck the better the motivation.

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
That does help the motivation. Having a bunch of buddies giving encouragement does too.

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
Well, haven't done much to it. Funny how other projects get in the way and we push things to the back burner. Although I haven't done much to the cab, I did have my friend rebuild the engine. He called me last week to tell me it was ready. So I put the truck back in the garage and dropped the engine in just to check fitment. I will have to move the engine mounts back a couple of inches to have a tighter fit to the firewall. I am waiting on my transmission as well so I can determine how much to trim off the firewall. Meanwhile, here is a pic of the engine. Exciting...

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
Hello everyone, it's been a long time since I've made time to work on my truck. It's been a crazy two years, personally and professionally. So many plans put on hold. Well I finally got tired of putting it off. I've been dreading working on the patches needed on the driver side corner. But only one way it was gonna get done, like anything else in life, committ and get it done. So below are pics of my work.. Keep in mind I'm a weekend warrior, self taught.

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
This is what I was afraid of the most, it rolls up and bends longways and then has that bend on the right...

Re: Jesses' 48 PU
I took my replacement patch, bent it 90' on my small metal break. Spot welded it to a one inch pipe and hammered the roll.
