[GJunktionMike]

Not siting idle

Been working on the trucks the last couple weeks, my 70 f100 is almost done, a couple good days and it will be on the road, Cut up the bed on my f450 got rid of some dead weight, Now I can set up for a goose neck.

I like the short work box bed, very cool.

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.

Here we go again with the GJunktionMike door shave

Started some window channel fill in again (some one elses ride) Just doing the top of the doors for this guy, no tops to worry about. Left a little of what was left of the post for the mirror to mount to.

 

[GJunktionMike]

Done door tops.

 

[GJunktionMike]

Some hole removal. I did both sides. Ran the body lines together, I really need a bead roller this hammering things is getting old.

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.

Looks perfect, I went 2 7/8 on mine and kept the whole back window.

Apparently there is something in the water in that part of Colorado that induces excellent fabbing and metalworking skills. We have two examples right here on our little board. Y'all should consider bottling it.

It's not the water! It's something else entirely out there

 

[GJunktionMike]

more 38 chevy

Thank's guys you are to kind. Don't think there is any thing in the water but you never know.

The owner liked the 3" so that what it is getting. Got all the edges cleaned up. cab is split and the back half is set. front is proped up for pics.

 

[Bonehead]

[sgtpontiac]

Very....

Nice!

almost looks like it's all on there.....[cl

 

[GJunktionMike]

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.
