Great to know. Thanks for the heads up! Was basing that off CCOT website. Glad you caught that. Maybe save someone the headache of tank not fitting, like it did. 🤯
Its been awhile since I posted anything on this project. Been very busy with work and family. Also made a few 4x4 trips this summer. Rubithon was a great time.
Over the past few weeks I've had a fews days to clean up the garage and begin to...
Shaping is completed for this piece. Just need to trim to correct size. It took about 1.5 hours to shape this piece but I took my time in order to get each ridge parallel and spaced correctly.
OK, finally got some more stuff to share. After several attempts to make a tool to form or shape sheetmetal, I finally acheived the results I was hoping to get. Here's a picture of a test piece I was using to see if the dies were correct to get...

New to the group. I’ve just started a 45 build after accumulating some parts. The frame does not have any mounts to work off of. I bought a daystar body mount kit and wanted to see if anyone has a diagram of what goes where. I’m scratching my...
1966 Fj45 resto where PO cut holes in dash for modern gauges (approx 2" in diameter). Any recommendations on gauge of metal to use as a weld on and bondo repair? Also have a hole in the dash area that has the raised lines. Any suggestions as to...
