Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Thanks rusty I'm glad you're enjoying it.
On friday we decided it would be easier to weld the bottom of the inner fenders with the truck flipped on its end. So we cut the top of the door frame since it will have to cut soon anyway. Mother Nature had already separated the rocker panels and the floor. Then we lifted off the firewall and windshield and set the back section on its end

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
Once we got the back section on its end we started making pieces to connect the inner fender. We also pushed the old frame out to the junk pile that will go for scrap.

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
I have a bunch of pictures to upload so this will take a few posts. First are some shots of the top of the windshield frame in the corners. Also a picture of flipping the frame up to paint the bottom.

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
After a bit of fine tuning on the body we started welding the body to the frame.

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
First time's free! Lots more coming
Well we got so tired of moving the huge roof around that we decided to skip ahead and chop the top so we can put the roof back on. We started by carefully measuring 4" on all the pillars. Then after careful study we decided it wasn't enough and marked them again at 5". Then there's nothing left but the cutting.

Re: My suburban's Twisted Little Sister
I also included pictures of the inside structure of the A, B and C pillars.
