Boom

Sectioned column brace
My buddy welding the back wall.
Scored this at the junk yard today. Gen 1 ohc.
random pic from today, was cleaning the shop.
Started on the firewall yesterday.
Got it welded up tonight
Its my dads design, i just did the labor lol. Im lowering the toe boards on both sides, this side for an ac box. :)
Hell mine might be to, any way to identity them?
Also got another piece done tonight
Got it done last night
Got the other piece made and screwed in.
Checked for clearance wither the mock up wheel tire.
Finished the firewall up and decided she would look better down on the ground.
did some work to the peach last night.
on the "pillars of destiny" aka the challenger lift.
had to cut the brace at a 45 to get this plate the way i wanted it, but it turned out better than i expected.
1/8 in brace with "speed hole"
3 random pics of it outside before it was on the lift

keep in mind, im copy/pasting from my build thread on rangerpowersports.com
Doors/fenders/hood gapped, and one wheel tub put in. Doing the other tomorrow.
I still got my friends trick
Tubs are done
Any who super scrubbed the bed today, it had 2 inches of dead leaves in it and mold. Mud cakes in the wheel wells. It's ready for the chopping block now. Gona try to knock it out this weekend.
Oh what's this.
Temp spacers
Dad finished up the 2nd tub today while I was at work. We used the old flat pieces out of my old bed.
Cool shot of me cutting off the excess on the drivers tub.
Fillets are done, now for some trimming and final welding of the tubs. Then I have to make some bed braces. Got the floor etched and painted in the cab.
Painted it with rustoleum hammertone. I could find my por 15. Oh well.

since im leaving for memphis tomorrow, here are some pics :)
me spot welding all the fillers in from the bottom at work, just like factory :)
dont worry, the wood is gone, just dont have any pictures of the stilts the bed is on, its just 2x2 1/8th wall tubing, with a flat plate on top and the factory bed clips.
