update, but slow

Post by DDfab »

finally think i might be getting close to paint. i was amazed at how many body lines and seams that didnt line up. had to do alot of welding on doors to get the door to fender gap even. got the new bed supports in for the aluminum floor. hopefully be done in 2 months.

trying to. removed complete drip edge, welded all seams closed and smoothed. stake pockets. just trying to make it all look good when finished. going to hopefully start bending cage for it next week.
for the collector, i destoyed a 70 ranger XLT with very very little rust.
just still like the pro street look. and its a mobile business card.
