Re: 30 Pickup Sheetmetal Work
That cut line really is close to the body line! I'll guess it was recut to get it straight. Was some crown wheeled into the panel before or after the lower body line work? Always enjoy the tech posts.

Re: 30 Pickup Sheetmetal Work
Flop, as ask previously... Did you wheel a crown in that door skin, or was it all done from the edges with a shrinker?

Re: 30 Pickup Sheetmetal Work
That looks beautiful. Did you use new roof panels above the doors, if so how well
did they fit. Bob |

Re: 30 Pickup Sheetmetal Work
thank you bob!!
the edge about the door needed stretched to take some curve out of it because the door wouldnt shut . And as you can see in the picture the front where it nails down doesnt line up . I rewelded that area after the picture to make things line up . They are a very nice piece though and well worth the price .
