'47 Dodge shop truck

[forbigpicture]

I got the front bulkhead tacked up and in place, as well as 3 of the 4 cross members in place. I'll get the tailgate and hinges started tomorrow. So far I have $265.80 in material and a few priceless hours of fun in it. I'll get the tailgate and hinges started tomorrow, if I wake up.

You never know.

He blackmailed me so I sent some metal contraband across state lines.

I needed to get the rear cross member in place before starting the tailgate.
Got that done, almost, and hung the left fender.
Tomorrow's a new day.

Dang-it Pops, I was going to save all of my praise for when you were done the box but it's just bursting out of me, so I gotta' say "You do wonderful things" [cl[cl.

Is that C channel from your building on the lower rear of the bead???

That's exactly what it is.. left over 11ga. receiver channel. Cheap, strong, straight and laying out there just waiting to be repurposed. I don't ever throw any steel over 18" in the scrap.

I've kinda been struggling with the tail lights. If I could find something I like
better I'd do it. Maybe I'll find something different.
