    @ralfie8801 3 года назад

    When you make the filler panels for behind the fenders, maybe make them out of an old running board so you can have steps at the rear of the bed.
    It might come in handy when hooking up to the gooseneck.
    This project has tuned out great and looked somewhat fun during the process, it even put a smile on your wife’s face when she got to test it out.

  • @howardkoster4026
    @howardkoster4026 3 года назад +1

    OK, I think I understand about the rear fenders. You want them to be fuller, closer to the tires. Geez, wish I could ride along in that truck.....Yep, your dog is saying, um, ahhhhhh, I LIKE it in here...

    Cutting and splicing a Front and a rear bumper together, bit of plate ,and wahla...a wrap around rear bumper..I do like the rear fender gap:)...maybe split the hump and reform the forward upper radius of the clunkiness in that fender smash the like guys maybe he will build a matching 5th wheel.

I myself just finished a 10 year restoration of a 1968 Dodge Polara Coupe C-Body! 440 in place of 318, Four wheel disc brakes with the big double actuating Booster, Electronic ignition, Charger style flip top gas cap.What others don't get to see is us working long hours, sore knees, Losing our religion LOL!

    The look on your face when your wife said "this is SO much fun..." was great. Proud Papa. Also loved your comment about having a Dodge Power Wagon in mind when you were originally conceiving the build, because that's certainly what it was reminding me of. And lastly, as a South end Winnipeg boy in the sixties who on occasion attended auto/farm auctions in Steinbach I can only tell you that it's a real pleasure to watch you create things, and it is my eternal regret that I didn't become a gearhead car guy until just before my retirement. I'm learning so much from three Canadians, you, Fitzee's Fabrications and DD Speed Shop. Even my bride has begun to turn her head in the direction of your videos. Will miracles never cease?
