Got the body sectioned today, the passenger door need a little more work but it turned out pretty well. The floor in the corner is pretty rotten and it's allowing the door jam to Twitter when you open and close the door. Hopefully tomorrow I'll get that patched up and chop the roof.
StanceWorks really needs more build like this, a lot of us (including myself up until recently) don't realize the level of fabrication going on in different enthusiast "scenes". Most people think shaving your emblems and gas cap is a big deal, but there is some really insane stuff being created, modified and built.
Chop everything to pieces and make it all work, people will be amazed. Liking where this is headed.
Thanks man, I'm a big fan of your 2002 so I really appreciate the kind words. I completely agree that StanceWorks does need more of this. Not tooting my own horn by any means, there is a lot of really amazing fabricators and people who are far better than I am at everything automotive and fabrication related than I am on this forum and it would be inspirational to me and I'm sure a lot of others if there were more. There is a lot to be learned from some of these people.
Building a frame and errything, Where did you learn all that? This is going to be rad.
Like 5 years ago I decided I wanted a bike that I thought was cool so I bought a Yamaha XS650 a welder and a bunch of steel to try an learn to weld. Kind of the same with this, I decided I wanted to build a truck so I shot for the stars and I'm going to make it work.
Also Clifford at http://www.motorcityratrods.com has been a huge inspiration and help. If you like what I'm doing than please check him out, you will not be disappointed.

Got some work done to the truck. The front bags are now mounted and I now I'll be starting on the rest of the front suspension soon as well as chopping the cab. My buddy got me a sweet tank from work that I'm going to use as a fuel tank that I'm pretty stoked about and now that the snow is gone I can go pull the motor. Just need to make the three hour trip to go get it.
