Re: off it goes

I'm looking at the update and am nearly speechless as usual looking at the details. I've been meaning to ask - are you going to drive this when it is done? Or show it for a while then drive it?

Re: off it goes

This is an amazing build is all I have to say to start off. it makes me want to completely redo my truck though it's "finished".
I do want to know how you guys cleaned up the door gaps though on page 21.
currently working on a 78 c10 with my dad and would sure love to make it more appealing. also have you guys been able to get the doors to close on it with ease?
Thanks guys and once again what an amazing truck!

green 3M bristle disc, it cleans the metal, but doesn't remove metal, it also smooths out your grinding scratches

Re: off it goes

WOW, I'm not usually a fan of the c-notched bagged trucks but, your truck is amazing. The fab work is unreal and I love the keeping it mostly "stock" looking from the outside concept. Love that it's going back to the factory two tone scheme too!!! Beautiful work!!
