papastrk, No, I won't be welding the hood to the fenders or filling any body gaps on the front end. I want to keep the body lines and gaps pretty much as they are. Just have to make the bracing to keep the flexing at a minimum when its lifted forward. I've never done this before so it all a learning curve. I just have to decide how big of a curve I want to make it. Good luck on yours if you decide to do it. My back told me I had to do it.

My truck needs a fan shroud so I decided to make his. This also the first time I've worked with fiberglass resin. I just took some ideas from orge and made the rest up as I went along. He's definitely right about the sanding part. And this is just a small project.
