Build Fly By Night

[RUSH55]

And speaking of paint, I guess that will pick back up today. Going to start with finishing off the sides of the cargo area before moving to the externals of the rear quarters and back end.

Drove it out to the front for a couple more pics

Whats wirh the extra frame in the roof?

That is an alternative headliner. It’s setup as a framework to attach an overhead console, interior lights, stereo speakers, whatever.
@scrapdaddy built the first one for his rig and I copied most of his design. @xtiaan2000 built and installed one also.

Agree, that is sharp!!! Strong work, what an incredible accomplishment to see it at this stage.

Technical stuff way above my head but I soaked it up. Learned a bunch!
