Re: Two is easier then one 1965 GMC S/W/BB build

Now the real work begins (At least for me) Shaping steel to have all the same contours, folds and creases as the original steel .


I lined where the first fold needed to be, then using my break (Known as a big ass vise and a block of wood) I replicated the factory V fold.

Then using several pair of welding gloves and a body hammer I was able to make the piece have the correct dish.
