Re: ** YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN** The truck Chevrolet should have built.

Next up is a trial fit. First I was going to use the floor of the truck cab also, but when I got to cutting on the Burb I found a nice steel plate in the spot I was going to have to build a kick up. It already is raised 6 inches, so I'll just use that and lop off the truck cab bottom. So far it looks like it will fit. Notice I had left everything long to decide later how best to mate each item. The pass side is easy because both vehicles wrap their quarters onto the jamb. I simply drilled out the welds on both and wrapped the cab corner like the factory did. I kept the blue drivers jamb side just in case I decide in a few years I am ready to tackle the 4th door option. It'll give me something to do on the truck after I'm finished and start to get bored. I also have seen plenty of unfinished projects for sale because the guy just gets overwhelmed. I'm going to try and avoid that!
