    Very interesting build, I really miss Canada, I used to be in the London, St Thomas area every week, met some great people. I’m glad you explained the reasoning behind the rear fenders, I kept watching and shouting swap sides with them, but the skirts and running boards will tie them together nicely. I’m going to start on my SB120 project in the spring, thinking about using a Mercedes diesel, unless I can find a 5.9 donor at a good price. Really enjoy watching you work. Dan.

    I look forward to watching every video you make on every project. I am a visionary so I can see some what a finished product. The good thing about metal is its always able to be fixed or as I say modified. The possibility is endless when you're working on a project. Sometimes they go smoothly and other times a pain in the rear. What I love about metal working is it's your ideas coming to life. Being different than everyone else is what makes us all unique and our projects unique as well. Keep them videos coming, love watching all of them.

    Heck ! A little more welding and grinding and for added bondo bubble proofing using your finger smear some Sheet molded compound over your welds then filler material over epoxy primer . Been doing it for 25 years my friend. Works great long term much better then glass bondo. Cool project to have the trucks ready available for sheet metal parts. Keep it up your getting there and keep up the good work.
