Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

I knew i would not be able to lift and fit the back of the cab by myself because of its size. So I enlisted the help of fellow boardmember bodydropped68 and some other buddys to come over and help. It took us about 15 times or so to get everthing trimmed to fit so it could be tacked up. everthing lined up pretty well but there is still a long way to go.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

The rear plate on burb was to long to clear cab so i cut it in half then after cab was in place i simply over laped it to fit back of cab and welded it back in. Then welded it to back of cab this worked out realy well.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build

Got a little side tracked this weekend I had side job to cut down some 67 bedsides for a buddy. Next weekend is another long weekend so i hope to get
the roof at least tacked in on the crewcab.
