[the dan]

[QUOTE=RADustin;1022325]sure do. I believe you can see my truck in some of the no limit fab ads last the I heard. Nobody over there was kind enough to clue me in though.

John Jackson took these for me when the truck ran in street trucks 3 years ago this Feb.


wow man, unbelievably clean

bed finally got back to the shop

then put onto the truck after extensive cutting and bracing





cut the bed to clearance for the roll cage






So i had to cut an access hole in the bed floor for my air ride distribution box. god forbid i blow a compressor line i would never be able to get the truck back into the air or even get a jack under it


Matt Van Overloop from DFT plasma (https://www.pro-touring.com/threads/...elvedere-Build) found me some Hartwell latches that i am going to use

[H8MENOW]

[Josh@Ridetech]

The fender replacement pieces they sold me were no where near close so I rolled and cut and file fit my own




Got my mastercraft seats in



bought a Mittler Brothers bead roller as well

oh i bought a new toy and made a stand for it too... should be able to make some cool stuff with it

[Gojeep]

Impressive work on the stand and very nice bead roller too.

Holley Dominator EFI with 1000cfm square bore throttle body came in.. not that i can put it on yet but it sure does look sweet

[the dan]

it may be Holley HP, i dont remember

[liquidh8]

these are pretty much the standard in hood pins, i opted for the ones with locks in them:



waiting on finding some door handles off a landrover series 1 for my handles and i just ordered 5 new dimple died (friggin 525$) so i can make that front radiator support something else....

These look pretty neat! Nice build, don't know why I haven't seen it before. I have an 83 C20 for a DD, love these old trucks!

[injcted]

Great work and fab skills! Keep updating!!!!!

driverside inner fenders are almost done

[Peter Mc Mahon]

Your truck is my inspiration. My truck [56' F100 coyote powered] is on hold right now [building a house and a shop] but I want to make it nascar inspired. What size tubing did you use for all the front end bracing?

[MSTSFabbed]

Just plain out awesome! I've loved watching this build. Your bead roller stand is cooler than my whole car...

[the dan]

its all 1.75 .120 DOM

thanks man, Its one of those things ive always wanted to do is fabricate 4 sided dimple died tubing. and this was a perfect part to do it on

[the dan]

finished the inner fenders, just one more spot to do
