Re: My 50 roadster pickup build

Basically you are taking everything you removed from the top, turning it upside dowm, and putting it at the bottom, if that makes sense. After I had this all in I could crab the back door opening and rock the whole cab and frame on the suspension. It was as solid as a rock. No flex and no give.

I'm going to jump forward to show you how it worked out. If you look real close you can see how nice the gap is around the door. Even after it was painted, because of the bracing done to the cab, this has never changed in 7 years. No paint chips from flexing or anything. Doors always close the same. (would show a painted example, but I dont't have them loaded yet).
