Dude! I live in Oregon! Awesome...

So... Are you like a super body man for a living? Or you just do your own stuff?

Yeh

Also what are you using to make you sheetmetal cuts??? - they look very clean and straight - do you use a fence like a block of wood clamped to the long sections of metal like the roof and wheel well cut-outs?

Looks Awesome - not sure I would have the guts to do it to a Burb that clean though.

Thanks, 19 days to get it to this point. Obviously there's still a lot of work to do, but this is my driver (seriously).

All I know is to duplicate that type of quick progress all that caffeine would have my cut lines as squiggly as a river drawn on a map.

Keep it up!
It took three weeks of every spare moment. Though I did also have work, three kids for 1/2 the week, and got a piece of metal in my cornea during the process that killed a couple days Funny thing is I just completely quit all caffeine intake just before starting this project... Maybe that's the secret

Maybe, I have not ever had problems seeing picts before? Is it the blue one XXL posted a pict of? I'd love to see it, can someone copy and paste it into a post? I might be able to see it then!? I am feeling way left out!?
