Default The Daddyo slow progress

No cash for the origianl floors metal but I refuse to sit idle so here I go. I do have some steel stock so I decided to strengthen the truck body and build a frame to start my new floor. The center of the floor will be done last as I will be installing an auxiliary trans behind a manual four speed. The welded frame work that has been started on the passenger side has yet to be done on the drivers side and the three bars seen in the door opening will get sheet metal welled to it replacing the rotted metal that was there since 1942. The floor will be steel panels after cross supports are added to what you see. Ok dont bash to much but let me have it

There is a link to my flickr page to see more pics of the truck under my ID CajunCrawfish.
