Thanks BH they worked out nice.

More days like today and I won't need to find a job. A 66 ford bed showed up today, going to work it over. Building a cross member for Studebaker's Studebaker. A guy needed wheel stops on his ramps. Did a quicK fix on hog pipes (got cash and need something welded, I don't ask questions). Alot going today.

Is it Monday all ready

38 Chevy chop. Ok so I have a sickness, and could not wait till Monday. Cleaned out 10 pounds of dirt, removed all the inner trim, braced the cab, did some hammering to smooth out the roof, marked it out and cut 3" out. I want the owner to make the call on the last 1", I think 3" looks good with out closing the windows up to much.

Thanks BH & Sarge

It is on there now, just have the center now. Front and back is welded and mostly cleaned up. Only had to pop 1 heat dent in the back, I knew it was going to pop because it was in the edge of a dent that was half there. Can't make the claim I don't know what I'm doing any more.
