Re: Long Time Coming......

A few friends helped me get the bed off and set it sideways on my scissor lift. Now I will have good access to do all the final welding.






At this point I started on the using the tear drop filler pieces that came with the bed normally designed to use on the rear end of the rails, but since I used the Apicella rounded corners I had them left over. I figured this was a good place to use them to finish off the front ends of the rails.





After some grinding here is the finshed look...







I then moved to the tailgate and started fitting and then tack welded the panels that will frame the center of the Chevrolet script for a real nice finished look.






Shop time:4.3 hours
New total: 543.3
