Danny

The first pic. Is that the extent of the welding you did on it or is that just a shot before you were done? Thing looks good.

hey guys i built my first tub ever and here is the results ....

Danny

Nice one Danny =D> =D>
Must have been fun welding the thin tub thickness to the thick chassis section though.

Are you going to put any type of seat back there?

Roughly what angle are the 4 links to the horizontal at ride height? Any idea?

Andy.

I laugh everytime you people say tub.

-Vance

you just are a tub! lol

I`m happy to see you shaving that lower bodyline.... but you should make those spotwelds more evenly spaced along the filler strip. Gotta Loose that rear liciense plate hole also....

hey Darren i did but i lost that photo of when i was done welding and the lin. plate is already gone man. ive already done this but the original door was rusted on the bottom lip and this was a better fix than replacing 8 in. of the door due to rust.
Danny

looking really good. i wish my progress was as good as yours..all i can say i've done is swapped an axle and ordered filler panels

we all have to start somewhere. i just didnt think the sheetmetal would kick my a55 so much lol
Danny

well everyone here is the updates for a slow monday...i hate that gm made the 2 wheelwells diff. sizes the pass side is one inch longer makes everything look off but ive double and tripled measured and all looks well.





well i will finish up the sheetmetal work in 2 weeks next week im helping vance pull his motor and get the engine bay ready for paint.
Danny

Looking sweet man great work...Todd

Sick! That's about all I can add right now, seeing as I'm lost for words. Which is no small feat...
