Re: my 65 fleetside build
just wanted to thank everyone for thier support through this very trying time,my sister passed away sunday evening,just a little bit about her. she was a organ donor and as of now her liver and kidneys have already helped someone and she would have liked that, she started a food ministry at her church and was always helping someone she will be missed by alot of people. she left behind two girls and her husband of 33 years, so please keep them in your prayers. here is a picture of her, she was a very beautiful lady,and not just on the outside.

Re: my 65 fleetside build
WOW, your cab looks really good! Yours is in a lot better shape than mine was in when I started. You will be painting that thing in no time and be ready for the charlotte auto fair. I like your cab lift, I may have to make me one of those. Great job, keep it up.

Re: my 65 fleetside build
flip the cab is coming along very nicely, i thought of doing the same with the seams, filling them in for a smooth look! i got a question for you too! are you using body filler over the epoxy or the other way around?? i've heard you can epoxy then use filler as long as its in the 7 day flush time! just wondering i'm thinking of buying a compressor this summer to paint my truck myself and to make some of this work go a lil faster!!

Re: my 65 fleetside build
Oh Yeah, Those gaps dont look bad at all. I think im going to take my bad one off first and see how mine looks. Bad thing is I just flipped my cab back over today to put seam sealer in and do final blocking of the roof and final paint on the bottom of the cab. Are you going to paint your cab before you put it back on the frame??
