Here are a few more pics
1. This is the back of cab.
All the metal came from WAL-Mart it use to be Coke a Cola shelves
2. This shows how bad the doors were and how much I channeled the body
3. Here I clamped the metal over the body and scribed a line and cut the body off and welded in my patch panel
4. This is a piece of 1/16 steel that is bent and welded to the door bottom to make it stronger
5. Last is a veiw looking in
