and i guess im keeping my shop until the new year .. the gf says ill be cranky if i dont have a cave to work on my truck so im going to strech it out till a buddy of mine gets his garage finished inside n i will move it there... ive been picking away at moving my divorced case ahead the last few days and getting little projects i had started finished up... ive also been trying to track down a short box for it if i dont find one this week im just going to get all new floor and sides... i took a 8' box side and shortened it 14 inches to see how it would look as a 7' box but to much work involved in getting the panels shrunk and streched to do a good job of metal finishing so short box it is.

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
I know I have at least one good rust free oem door. I can get you pics of it if you'd like? The 7' box doesn't look too bad really.

They have a farm with acres of stuff. Mostly new, but he does have a nice stash of square body stuff. I have been meaning to go browse but i never have time. The auto wreckers in Vermilion also has a nice selection of squares. I know these are places out of your neck of the woods, but its my area so i know they are there

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
Well the new bed floor and box sides showed up from lmc... I was a little disappointed when I opened up the left side n found a big dent in it right from the centre of the wheel arch to about 4" above the body line ... Sucks when people are careless when shipping goods... So waiting until Monday to call... The bed floor was also dinged up where the filler tubes go threw but I hammered those back into place

Re: My crewcab 4x4 cummins project
That looks like a cool old truck! What tire size did you decide to go with for the end result?
