Re: New Pics Of my Resto
The bed looks fantastic with the seam filled, and the underside of the hood looks nicer than the topside of a lot of trucks. Great work.

Re: New Pics Of my Resto
Simple and awesome.
Not to ask a stupid question but how do you fill those long seams on a 60-66? If you weld them there's too much chance of heat warp isn't there? But with filler you run the risk of it cracking after you put a nice paint job on it, don't you? |
