Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Thanks guys , west9378 there are way better welders on this board than myself but that is why God invented grinders ! I learned awhile back whenever you need new expensive tools or parts for your project the best way to get your accountant/wife on board is to keep showing them the new truck ads and when they see those $50,000.00 and up price tags they seem to be a lot more receptive to a $500.00 welder . I know the purist go crazy every time they see another smoothed firewall but this cab was a good candidate for it and I have another rust free 67 cab for a stock build after this ones done .
