    Wow...looks great. I actually like the look of your panels better. They have a cool custom fabbed look. Are you doing both sides?

    Not bad. Had to bend the right side as it was bowed in the middle.

    got the truck over to my buddies body shop today ( s&s in webb city mo). got a few minor things pulled and straighten out, and started the blocking process. the truck has been blocked and body worked a few times already so we are close. the doors are all buttoned up and ready for final blocking and sealer.
