    Chopped 55 f100

    Punched all the louvers then wrapped the sheet around the square tubing frame. The cover is welded all the way around so I could grind/shape a nice rounded edge. Luckily, it did not kink at each louver as I expected.

    Chopped 55 f100

    Built male and female louver dies Then I used a 200 ton 12' press brake - way overkill. I only needed a 5' 20 ton press but I used what I could find locally.

    Took the week off and did a bunch of painting Installed tonneau cover with linear actuators Played around with the metal roller I built. Rolled 1" aluminum bar stock to 14" diameter. Thinking about making my own billet half wrap steering wheel.

    Chopped 55 f100

    Set the tonneau cover on the bed and lucky it matches very good (thought for sure I was going to regret painting the bed and tonneau on different days). I cannot believe how much better it looks with paint. The cover is set on a couple of inches back so I can grab onto it to remove it (just...

    Chopped 55 f100

    Stacks scare me but after I did it I just couldn't get myself to remove the tips. I will come up with something that looks good and is safer for the little ones. As far as pressing the louvers, in my first post I posted a link to a previous forum I had posted too and there are pictures of the...

    Yes it is a triangulated 4 link. Let me know if the latest posts (today) don't show what you need. I used the factory upper mounting tabs that came on the 93 8.8 Mustang rear end I am using and fab'd lower mounts. The links where custom from suicide doors except for the ends on the upper...

    I like the idea but the problem is not when the window is rolled down. There is about 3 inches of full width parallel window that is engaged with the channel at all times near the bottom of the window. The support increases as the window rolls down since the 3" section is engaged and distance...
