Re: Frankentruck

One nice thing about living in Georgia is that Auto Metal Direct is a little over an hour's drive from my house. Saved on shipping and got to have a nice drive in the Dakota. I got the last couple of patch panels I needed for the cab.

After I got home, I decided to just go for it and start cutting on the truck. I figured the best place to start was the inner fender, so that's what I did!

For my first patch panel, I'm happy with it. Still need to do some grinding on it and fix the rear part. I mocked up the fender as well and the two holes from the patch piece fit great with the fender.

More progress coming soon!
