Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....

Well alrighty then ....
Nice long weekend ensued.
I have come to realize that I like making stuff, modifying stuff, and hammer and dolly work is awesome!
And no I am not kidding.

First off the weekend kicked off with a dip to -40*
Photo included in case you wanted to see what that looks like on the thermometer outside your kitchen window.....

Spent all day Friday in town shopping, and taking the wife out to lunch. Then Saturday was all up in it.

Pic #2 I cut 1" strips of 18ga from the cab corner I cut out and replaced, folded them over to make the mesh insert frames for my turn signal wells. I was about to go to the local metal fab place here in Fairbanks, when at Lowes I spotted this roll of quick mesh in the heating ducts section. (you can just see it in the top left corner).

Pic #3 is the assembled deal.

Pic #4&5 is a mounting mock up in the hood face.
