Re: dodge L 1000
Yes work and children will do that. For me it's only work and that's hard enough if I had kids I don't know what I would do. What do you use to do your brass work soldering wise?

Re: dodge L 1000
I use a combo of mapp gas torch and a stainglass iron and the solder I use is a product from tractor supply that is a heavy duty solder for dissimilar metals. I also use silver solder for most of the steel..

Re: dodge L 1000
Great to see you back on this Crawler. I am really impressed with your brass work and creativity, there is nothing that you will not try to make from scratch yourself. Gotta admire that.

Re: dodge L 1000
me to .. i have a good bit more small stuff to add to the outside and I also have to pick up some slow drying glue for the laminated roof and it will be time to paint it. Im going to be going for a weathered look but their will be just a little rust as these truck cabs were aluminum..

Re: dodge L 1000
That is one incredible rig! It's even more impressive because it's all from scratch! Excellent work, crawler. I'm not sure how I missed this build, but I won't be missing it any longer.
