wow...just wow.

You have done an amazing job!

It hurts me to see rust free bodies getting chopped up, but you actually made it look better. +1 on they shoulda come like this from GM.

Great job :bow::bow:
 
Thank you for all the compliments, I'm amazed at how much work my wife has let me get done in just one month. :D

That's what GM should have built !...perfect size 4x4..fits the family,yet can still be trail worthy too..

How will you get the rear glass shoertened though--plexiglass or Lexan instead of glass maybe ?...or are you going to make it a "panel truck" by filling them in with sheet metal,instead of having windows?..if so,I think that would look very cool!...

I have a glass shop that says that they can cut them down.

I plan on building a wrap around tube bumper, if anyone has any ideas please post them.
 
Looks great! How did you get the roof lines to match in the windows so well?

I would run lexan, especially if you are going to wheel it. That way you will never have to worry about breaking custom cut glass. I ran lexan on my blazer's top and never had a problem.
 
Mine is 80% finished, the paint is almost done, the doubler is on the floor, tranny is ready, just need gears for the axles, and now I am completely at a loss on mine, this is devastating to me, because that looks so completely awesome, that mine now sucks.
 
Looks like you're leaving a half inch or so of the sheetmetal, then bending it down and back as a flange for the new metal to weld onto -- much slicker than just buttwelding. Are you using a special tool to do the flange, or just pliers and patience, or ... ?

Too bad some stock K5 windows out of a top didn't happen to fit it,there are plenty of those available...
Lexan is costly,but cheaper than custom cut glass would be,and it wont break...
