Re: Project: 1972 K30 Crew Cab Duramax

Happy New Year’s guys! Getter-Done, the hood is off of my 71’ swb, I didn’t want it to get banged up sitting around, so I put it on this truck for now.

Spent my New Year’s Day still working on my inner roof. Slow going as it is so hard to keep it in shape. You have to keep test fitting the outer to make sure the shape isn’t out of whack. I am 1/2 done with the inner. Now I need to jump to the other side and flatten out some spots. I am happy with the slight crown to the roof, which is what I was after. If you stare at a regular cab, or cut off as many roofs as I did, you will notice the slight dome shape. Most I have seen are flat, and I think it causes some low spots in the transition.
