Re: Time for a Canadian build thread

Well I started cutting the longbed apart. Carefully dissecting with the hopes of putting it back together something like stock. I haven't gotten to tipping the new flanges yet. I'm going to bring the rear passenger corner to work tomorrow to trace for a buck. Anyway, here's some progress pics from the weekend. I couldn't hep myself and I had to hang the panels just for fun.

Re: Time for a Canadian build thread

OK, I made an attempt at folding over the rear corner of the shortened box side. First step is to trace the box corner and make a 1/4" plate form. Second step is to draw your bend line and tack the form into the bed. Then start lightly tapping the edge over. Lots of small light taps and try to bring it over evenly tapping the high spots.
