HA! That's funny, I was calling "BS" in my head when you said you built those two Petes. I'm like, "those are the gliders 12 Ga has for sale". :lol:

incredible.....just wish this didn't make my builds seem so insignificant...lmao. Gorgeous truck so far. Can't get over the insane sheet metal work.

What is your technique for grinding/sanding once you have done your welding? It's like you poured the metal out and molded it.

Very clean, wish I had the time and skill to finish my under hood of my SquareBody like that....

green 3M bristle disc, it cleans the metal, but doesn't remove metal, it also smooths out your grinding scratches

What do you use or how do you get your welds down to that point though to avoid low spots etc?

CHROMAHOLIC 02-20-2013 07:54 PM

Re: off it goes
 
that's my buddies deal....he is unreal with the form and fit of every piece before the welder even comes out....and his welding in unbelievable. He had his sons Dart he build in Buffalo Autorama last year and the Ring Brothers were overwhelmed with his work and attention to detail....

Re: off it goes
 
Do you have any other pics of your bumper mods ? Between the before and after shots? That front bumper is super clean....

This truck gives me some serious wood!


Just realized you are from Ontario, where? Probably to far for me to come drool on that fresh steel...:metal:
