OK...I'm goin for it...I'm Sectioning it, (maybe) Looking for Moral Support & Answers

it's not that big a deal on a truck, as has been mentioned. if he did what has been done so far i think he can handle it. i've got a sectioned and narrowed 54 Ford truck cab in the garage i'm about half done with. it was realy no big thing at all... at least i did'nt think so. different people have different skill sets though. mine just happens to be cutting shit up and piecing it back together in ways it was never intended to be put together.

 

I like the look now. I don't feel sectioning would enhance the look. My .02 cents.

 

I like it the way it is...

 

I also like it the way it is.

 

I like the look of the truck Kiwi Kev sectioned. I think it's partly to do with the having the correct bed for the truck.

 

Well I quess it would only be right to jump in on this one. My truck is Sectioned 2 1/2" and channeled 3. I could link you to build pics if you are interested.

 

I quess a pic would help.

 

damnit Gecko now ya had to go and post a pic like that and make the truck I'm building look like crap...thanks a lot...now I have more work to do!!!

 

pretty much what i was thinkin. DAMN. might have to section mine now. bastard!!

 

gecko and kewi sealed the deal for me....

more pics to follow........

 

+1...

 

This is an ancient photo of my truck 4 in chop and slant posts


I've been thinking of sectioning it this time around to get the hood line slimer.

 

This sounds silly, but could anyone send me some information on this as well? My dad and I are building a 53, as it was the first hot rod he built in the early 70s, and unfortunatally this looks like it's going to be his last. We have been picking for about 3 years at it now, and just have the chassis done. I, from the beginning wanted to section the cab, and originally found a how-to of sorts online that showed very detailed pictures with sharpie lines and everything of a 48-53 cab and now I can't find it, so if ANYONE could send me that link, or pictures of yours so I too can figure it out the rest of the way I would REALLY appreciate it. Thanks.
