[PROJECT] Laidout53 Part II

badass truck!

Thanks Nate

Well yesterday i started making the new floor on the drivers side and got it finished today, except for the rust in the corner like on the other side. Next up will be the transmission hump. Need to get some sheet metal this week so i can start on it.





Heres the pictures, I wont bore you guys with during constuction pictures( mostly cus i didnt take any). Just flip the patterns and trace then cross your fingers that it looks the same...











View from the other side

Nice build!

Thanks Pat



Heres an update...

I got the transmission hump finished today. Yesterday I cut the floor out under the seat area to give the transmission room if i ever need to remove it. Just need to drill the holes for the bolts and install the threaded clips.

Well Ive been working on the truck alittle over the last couple weekends so heres an update.

First i finished the floors by remaking the front of the seat pan area.

Then I bought a set of front fenders, and started fixing the rust. The back edge full of rust and the mount was gone so i cut that part out and used the old fender to patch it, also the front corner was gone so i made a new one. I also removed the rivets that hold the mount to the fender.

Next i got some G78-15 tires and wheels on it to make sure it sat low on there proper height tires and throw a fender out back to see what it will look like with the rear fender lip modification done.

Next i modified the shift lever so i can bolt on a customs shifter when i make it, then i built one out of wood to see if it works and look good. Heres what ive come up with, there will be speed hole in it and it will be chrome when done.
