Unbelieveable amount of quality work!
Attention to detail is the best.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Hey just wondering if using a standard third door and flipping the glass be any easier than building a door from scratch? Just thinking out loud.

You are doing amazing work. I can't wait to see the end project

What's the name of the clips you use to lineup the sheet metal?

im going to reuse the main glass that came in the fake door but the stationary glass will need to be custom cut on both sides because the back of the door is round at the top not square

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Had a little time today so I worked on finising up the upper jamb above 4th door. Had a buddy bend a peice of 16ga to match the shape of the truck cab.
did not get it finished but it tacked in will finish up tomorrow.

Thanks guys! Not much done on the truck lately just some small detail stuff.
But I did pick up a extra 3rd door, I need the door lock linkage out of it for the 4th door. Also picked up another passenger door just because it was a good deal.

thanks! I hope to get some more done this weekend I'm getting close to finishing up the fourth door. I'm approaching the one year mark on this build,
I hoped to have the cab done by now but I'm happy with my progress so far.
I have a lot of days off coming up so maybe by the first of the year?

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
finished up some details on the 4th door at the rear the shape is a little different so I grafted in a section from the fake door. This is where the little stationary window goes. also welded up the cut I made to reshape the door and I welded up the door lock hole.

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
I've been getting a lot of work done on the truck but nothing realy pic worthy.
I've also been working on a buddys truck and i have the seat out so i thought I would see how the combo of his seat and my seat looked in the crew cab. heres some pics let me know what u think
