It took four hours to lay out the inside cuts and drill all the spot welds in the front floor of the box and the front stake pockets. Then another hour and a half to slice and dice.

Three more hours of trim and fit, trim and fit. Then I found the right hand side of the box has been rubbed up against something pretty hard and it has pushed the area in front of the wheel opening in adding a curve to the box side that shouldn't be there. I tried to get that out and have it almost good but outa steam. Gonna kick back for the rest of the weekend.

I think it's gonna work :D

Yeah, take ya a little break there Dozer... you deserve it....
looks great!!!! [P[P

Dude, i just couldn't get my head around what you were doing but, WOW what a great job :cool:[cl[cl[cl[P[P[P

I couldn't get my head wrapped around it either, If I had of followed my initial plan of making two straight cuts to take out the 14 inches I would have had a real problem lining everything up

Fine planning makes a fine job![cl

looks great[cl

Later:cool:

The Chevy doner came with a 700R4 in good condition

Lookin' good. [cl

Thanks everyone
 
Yesterday was a real busy day, decided I had thought enough about welding the box back back together and got after it. Still have to take out 5.5 inches behind the rear tires.
