thank alot man, I will say so far its easier than i expected it to be.

FnLow69 · 09-08-2009, 12:16 AM

well heres another update got the hole roof tack back on and started putting it back together...

I used the peice i cut out of the side of the door, for the gap above the door...

passanger side

driver side

and piecing back together the front above the windsheild. Im leaving the drip rail to retain a stock apperance, still more to do here (sorry for the blurry pic)...

(The piece of wood is supporting the four roof edges)

More progress later this week....

Very nice,
Justin, Ive been following both threads on this truck,its gone through some serious mods. I think the (2" rear // 3" front) off the top will be the perfect amount.Subtle and in proportion.It already looks good.I think I need to get this book you speak of..
You young skilled guys make things look so easy.

You had said,probabley a 3/4?? Im guessing you went w/the original plan of 2/3...??

**kev2809** · 09-08-2009, 05:10 PM

there cut to line them up, because of the tapper(width difference) in the post.
