    Even though it's a rat rod, i like that you still pay attention to the little deatails, like the curve in the visor.

    I wanted a small lip around my fresh air vent that we spoke about earlier. The shape is mostly flat so i cut a 1/2” plywood buck and routed the edges with a 3/8 rounding over bit. After cutting a piece of 20 gauge i clamped it to the plywood and the began lightly tapping it into the curve, i heated the corners and tapped gently, shrinking the metal easily. After about 90 minutes the curved edges were formed. Careful grinding and filing of the bottom edge perfected the shape. Thanks for showing me how to do this. What fun.

    Hey Bawb
    That sun viser makes a world of differance in the look of that truck !
    I believe had I been building it I would have left some space between the viser and the cab top so it is not traping air as you fly down the road.
    You can still work in some airflow iffin ya have a mind to.
    Nice job Bawb, Thanx fur lettin us look over ya sholder.
