OK, after the holidays I got busy on the Dodge cab, or as busy as I can be. Seems like I can get the most uninterrupted work done after supper. I am not an experienced body man by any means so I have to go slow so and learn as I go. Every replacement panel I got for it has had to be modified except for the cab corner. So far the only mistake I've made that I know of is cutting out too much of the hump beside the gear shift. A piece of filler tin will have to cover the gap. Thank goodness it will be covered with carpet when I'm done.
As you can see the two floor panels are held in with sheet metal screws for fitting purposes. How should I weld it? Stitch? Drill holes and imitate spot welding? Weld solid?
Whadda ya say?
This will be a work pickup when I'm done but I'm a bit of a perfectionist so I want it looking as close to unaltered as it can be.
