BlackBird620 Posted January 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2014 I've seen that big rust hole on ftlallday's old truck. It was all like... pffffff-Flame. Lol sounds about right I'm going to do 1/2 inch welds alternating between the corners till she's solid again should keep warpage down and reduce chances of burning through Quote Link to comment

Jester Posted February 3, 2014 Report Share Posted February 3, 2014 So why not just take the whole floor board section from blackbird and install in the new truck? I do like the new "storage box" idea. That will be cool. I like the mismatched door mirrors too. :rofl: Quote Link to comment
