The 3rd was the actual goal, so I blew past that one, I may get done with all but paint by the end of the month though I do have a long range tank to figure out.

When we were working on it there was debate on welding to the fender, cut off wheels are cheap and readily available at work, plus there are guys that can reweld if need be.i am not one of those guys haha

They are overkill, but they are 4” heavy wall tubes welded every 4”-6” to the body. It was the material lying around available at the shop. I didn’t worry about the weight as the truck did lose some. 4” worked well as it comes out even with the fender and hangs down to the bottom of the...

Got my carpet in, haven’t taken pictures yet. Got my bed frame built and mounted. More diamond plate to cut for sides and bulkhead and wood to mill and fit for the floor . I’m very happy with this so far.

Making more progress, interior work today. Was going to work on the bed, but my fabricator had something come up.also, my carpet kit came today!

I’m going to try and make it, hopefully the 60 will be drivable

Getting it closed in. Still need to pull taillight wires and fuel tank plastic thingy through the back panel. Found a long range tank and have a good idea how to install it, modifying the spare tire cross member to hang it.

What is that color? I really like it.

Made more progress today, replaced the rockers with 4x4 tube.and added steps. Still have some fiberglass work to do and some grind and fill work. Then the bed and paint. Goal is to be done by March, as that will mark 10 years of ownership.

Made some good progress today, hope to have the body completely closed in by Christmas .

I have one that’s not perfect, but I can get pictures of it this evening if you’d like. Let me know

I’m redoing my headliner and plan on gluing foil backed styrofoam to the top. My hope is to reduce heat transfer

The plan isa flatbed, iron frame and bulkhead with white oak floor. There was a fair amount of rust in the fender wells and floor.

It’s been some time, but finally got to work on Godzilla. Drove it to work and reworked the back hatch. I’m happy with how this attempt turned out . Still have the bottom half to build then the bed.

I put bmw seats in my 60, the best mod yet. I rode my original seats all the way back, the new ones have a few more inches to go.
