Sawyer Metalcraft 45 Series Sheet Metal Fabrication

[EWheeler]

This is borderline chit chat, but this guy in AUS is making reproduction 45 series panels by hand, similar to what I assume @Awl_TEQ was doing to manufacture panels. He has tons of videos showing how he is making the parts, and it's just fascinating the level of craftsmanship this guy has. Absolutely stunning sheet metal work. His most recent video showed reproducing 45LV door skins. He has built complete 45LPB beds. I've only seen his videos on Facebook, so sorry for those who don't participate in that platform. Hope you enjoy his videos.

Based on the video he posted of his LV, he need EVERYTHING. Look at the roof/B-pillar rust He doesn't appear to have a website. Suspect the price for his parts is shocking. Appears to be worth it if you need it and can afford it.

Are you privy to their cost? I've no clue what any of his stuff costs. I'd have to imagine $15k for a bed, maybe more landed in the US?

It was something like that, yes. It was right on for what something of that scale, hand-made should cost

How much are they?

How much are they?

I’d recommend you reach out to the actual vendor selling what you are interested in for a quote.

You can message him on Facebook and I'd bet he could let you know.

His Sept 10th video says he won't be building one for a while.

He posted in the comments a couple weeks ago in one of his posts that his tailgates are $1500 AUD

I’m based in Oz and have purchased some of Rob’s replacement parts for a bed I’m rebuilding. The quality and workmanship is epic and he’s a top bloke!
