Been caught up.
Finally got all the little brackets tacked in for the scrappy bows.
Ended up threading the B and C pillars for seat belts if needed down the road.
Now on to that bending thing. Been procrastinating on that.

You know what Bob would say...and I have you waaaay beat on the procrastinating
Yeah, it's only metal...right. As you found out each rib will be different because of that sloping roof. Have you decided on a bending method?

You are welcome to drive to Idaho and use my roller or bender if you think it will speed up the process.

Cool!
Looks great. Just a reminder to leave a space between the roof and bars for some type of padding, sealer, etc. so it doesn't rattle. I used SEM seam sealer. You're doing a good job!

Yeah man, that is awesome!
What’s the story with the bender? How many die sets does it have?
Hsrbor Freight with SwagOffroad square 1.5 square tubing die(thanks targetcarrier). The roller Came with 3 round dies 1”-2” if I remember correctly.

What wall thickness did you use?
I have a fire extinguisher that always falls out of it’s carrier. Scrapdaddy I noticed you had one mounted on your airline track. I searched for a holder for a while and found none. Did you make the one you have?
I do wish I had set up my B and C pillars for 3-point belts. Good call while you have everything open!
My extinguisher is mounted in the rear corner with nutzerts not on the track. I have a couple flashlights mounted to the track with these brackets.
I used a thin wall tubing, tried the thick wall .120, but too tough to roll for me.

Tube rollers are really cool!
Got the sides done and the thing is tacked.
Had to cut down the profile of the landing pads to fit.
Had just bought a portaban and a Swag table. WOw! Way better cutting things with that instead of a 4”grinder!
The hood I am going to used was starting to get too rusty. Sand and paint.
All ways looks so cool with primer and far a way.
