Thanks. I really need to take a week off from work and just knock this thing out.
I hope youre talking about just the fab work on the cab, knocking any more out in a week would require pushing it out in the drive way and a crate of :nick
 
LoL! Yes, I was referring to just the fabbing, welding and grinding.

Would it be OK to use Great Stuff for a seat cushion though? Just askin'...

Heh, if you're willing to sit in the seat for a few hours after you spray it, it could be custom molded to your body!!! But it would be a pretty hard seat!
 
Take a plastic bag, fill it with great stuff and then sit in it so it molds to your a$$ and back. Once cured, you could add some foam, then get it upholstered!
 
Big J, I swear, you got it goin on daddy! Your metal fab skills are amazing! I think your right, take a week off and keep pluggin. Great work!

70fastback how is the project coming along.

The last picture is where she sits right now. I'm still gathering parts when I can. I hope to start the frame shortly after I get the cab all cleaned up.
 
Just a "for fun" comparison picture. This is the difference between stock and the 5" chop[nb]Note: the back window opening was only chopped 3".[/nb].

Will you have to lower the seats much from stock to fit? I have seen the combo of chopped cab and lowered seats equate to the driver cannot work the brake pedal. Make sure all fits.
