I don't think that's a domestic motor.I believe it's "Extra terrestrial.Totally alien!!!
Truck looks good wish I was single.But not enough to buy it.

Re: 71 Cheyenne Super- A Combined Effort
I got a quick question on the panel alignment on the bed. How good do the body lines match up after cutting the bed pieces out? I'm thinking of going this route cause short bed fleets are getting harder to find. I;m worried about the aft body line not looking right. Did you have to do alot of messaging, or filler to get it right?

Re: 71 Cheyenne Super- A Combined Effort
The only other thing I would add is that instead of only using the screwdriver trick to align the panels, I preferred working both edges with a hammer and dolly to get the curvature the same prior to welding. We still used the screwdriver to get them perfect, but the prep work with a hammer and dolly ensured they matched 95%.
