Nicely done.. Jordan's welding skills 10, mine 3 (on a good day)...
Oh My goodness!!! If only I have a fraction of that talent.. Fortunately, while I do not possess his (or his friend's) skills, I am persistent!...
Second try on curving the 1/2" square tube. I put round rod inside this time to try and avoid the slip roller crushing it on the more severe...

This one is a little more realistic... [ATTACH]
A little more playing... It messed with some of the dimensions and didn't paint the door fin bit white but you get the idea... This is just crazy...
I hear that. I toiled over finding a second cab to make the truck a 4 door, but with my minimal body work skills that would have added years to...
