Still working on the rails, they're old so need lots of attention. I plated the inside of the rails where i made the pie cut, cut out and machined the rear stubs and kickers, began boxing the rails and pulling the body off the original subframe.

The frame is coming along nicely.
Can't wait to see more.

Had to lay off the frame for a bit while waiting for fuelline and brakeline etc so's i can weld them into the inside of the framerail befor i finish the boxing.
I blew the body apart to its major pieces, scrapping the subframe and crossmembers. I've started making the new subframe and have the body semiassembled on a workbench. I am adding body bracing to tye it to the floor/subframe. When done the body will be set on the frame in one piece and since it has to be so strong i am using 16 & 18ga steel.
