Re: ClusterTruck; because that’s what it is

Now I had heard that patch panels will require some "fitting". This is true, be ready for it. Like by buddy Dave the body man says, "They're better than making the pieces yourself."

The cab corner fit ok, but the curve along the door edge wasn't quite right. Once I started moving it around I realized it would need some relief cuts to get the curve right. Then it needed the bottom brought in just a bit.
During all this fitting, I was also putting the rocker in and out to make sure it would also fit. It needed some shaping too, but more on that later.
