ive been thinking about doing this build because i have a cheap 4 door 86 i can pick up and a 06 crew cab that needs a new body, ive thought about doing a flat bed tho rather than fight the box bolts.
Awesome project! Just as a if your interested....we build world class suspension systems (and parts) right here in New Haven if your looking to get that machine to handle.....
Talked to you today at the Maysville wally world...nice truck! You wouldn't believe how many people walked by your truck and told there buddy's how much better they could do....only to get in a 94 Pontiac with 4 mismatched tires & 2 cylinders missing.....keep up the good work!
Just finished watching the older than a year videos ...the start of the project pretty impressive, most especially the tilt from end and panoramic roof...which I must say I hope stays put without leak issues. The double steel roof construction provided a lot of integrity toward strength of the cab . Back in 1972 I bought a K120 4wd regular cab , and the double roof was one of the reasons ..I made an overhead console for my needs and that inner steel liner made for a happy life . In any case yours is a very impressive build ..and although not yet finished as of the date of this video it is nevertheless a great accomplishment 👏👏👏👍👍👍👍
Hey bro, loving the progress. I have an 87 myself. I’m looking to get a wide body style going on. Do you do this type of work for others or only your vehicles?
I expect this car will be featured in a movie someday. I just get the sense that someone's going to see it, and from it being so unique, may be something used in a movie. I could see it in an American version of a futuristic Mad Max or even a Cannon Ball Run type of movie, Death Race 2000? As for the footage of the guy sanding on the classic car ,that does bring back memories when my grandfather was teaching me autobody when I was a senior in high school. At the end of the day, my snot was the color of what car I was sanding on that particular day. Guess it would have been a good idea to wear a dust mask while I was sanding. Thanks for the video. Interesting to watch and see the progress.
