Thanks for the accolades. It is hard to get motivated, but once I see some progress, it gets easier. Stopped for dinner and now headed out there to tack the other side together. I made the cuts earlier. Here is a trick I learned in 1980 from my trade school body shop teacher. I failed to show it on the first run of pictures. When you get your 12" and 8" cut made on the outer skin, slice your top bedrail and remove the skin exposing the inner bed side. Take a piece of masking tape and straightedge and mark your inner skin. Lay your tape down and shoot a dab of spray bomb. white works better than black, and take your tape off. It leaves a straight edge to follow with your cut and you wont have big gaps to fill in when you weld it up.
