Ok guys here we go again I have 4 days to get alot done on this so here we go. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

I cut the last windows and layed out the doors I also made temp lets so I can cut the door out of very thin plastic to do over lay for the door later.



Next to start on the back of the body. I am using 1/4 PVC sheet for the inner frame work of the body then I will cut and bend the PMD alum tread plate and plan alum sheet and line the bed of the back.







Ok back at it I will up date later again. [/b]

Ok last night I finished the pump house boxing it in and I added the vents on each end of the unite on top of the pump house.





Then i had to cut 1 1/4 off the frame as I messed up a little and had to add the back step but no biggy was not too tuff to fix.



Next I had to make the side with the roll up doors. They just look like roll up doors but dont. The hole side of the truck is hinged to flip the side down for wiring later.

Ok guys here is a little update..Picks are slow to come as there are 2 sides to this truck so post picks for one side then have to build the other before I can move on..
So here is the picks I did body work on the seams and I used 3m under coating on the under side then I painted the rest of the body with Dupla color chrome so I can start covering the rest of the body with Alum and PMD tread plate.[/b]

Ok here you guys go. I got the side panels to the body painted and I have added the chrome strip across ed the lower of the body with the DOT tape over top of that. What do you think :-/
