Man, awesome work so quick! I know if I ever get around to mine, it won't go that quick. :lol:

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Started working on roof trying to get truck roofline, worked on it for a few hours but still think it needs to come down some. Still looks a little puffy in the front.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Yes sir I think the front is still a bit high! Thats just my opinion though.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Yes it is still higher than i want going to have to trim a little more good thing i'm off work tomorrow.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

worked on roof today I think it looks pretty good. Its just tacked in still have some cutting to do in the rear section but ran out of daylight.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Looks like you got it flattened out nicely

Nice work hope you can keep up the quick pace!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Yea I think its going to work out nice it took about 3 hours to get right then 10 min to tack up. Still a long way to go

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Yes sir that roof is looking much better!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

thanks it came down at least another half an inch from the last pic
I ended up cutting out about 1.5 inches from the burb roof.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Awesome build!! I will be checking back.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Great work on your roof! Did you just trim until it started to fit better? Are you going to cut the rear cab roof and butt weld it, or leave it over lapped like that and weld it?

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Im going to cut the rear and butt weld it.

Looking good roof contour is spot on:metal:

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

Very cool project! I'm in.....

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

The roof proportion can make or break a crew conversion....I think you nailed it :metal:

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
 

To answer your other question i was not sure how the roof was going to work out so I started by cutting it at the body line where the slope starts.
Then I knew I was going to have to cut at least 1 inch out so I cut that out of what was still remaining on burb. Then I set roof on straped it down with a few ratchet straps until i got the shape i wanted then bent and cut what was left on roof to fit and tacked it up. I had no idea how it was going to work out but ended up looking ok. heres more pics
