So I thought I would bring this one back.from the dead as a have been actually making a little.progress as of late on it.


The frame was a little.more bent than I originally thought. I had my buddy with a wrecker come over and bend the left frame horn back. It wasn't all that close but not bad. So I got it straight and checked the measurement for the body mounts and found it was 3 inches wider than it needed to be. So I got to looking and.found that the right side was also bent. Got that side decent and set the cab back down and started on the cab and fenders. The hood and fenders were a mile off. Spent most of the day on that and got them close. Also got the headlights to actually fit in the fenders.

Lol thanks Nate.

Didn't get anything done tonight. Drove to Denver and picked up a used radiator for 300 bucks. Still need a steering gear box and done other small things but its getting closer

Can you make the finish on them smooth like on one coated? Just wondering about air flow characteristics around the modded portion. Unwanted turbulence? If it being non coated, will it affect it?
