I did pull from SEMA this year. Build is still going, I had to pull back just a bit because of outside reasons. I work in healthcare and we all know there are a lot of changes at the moment. This is not going to turn into a political discussion, and I must put family first. I didn’t lose my...

That’s funny. Honestly it’s so thick at 3/16, I’m already in the overkill zone. Yet the bed still come in around 100lb so it fit what I needed and didn’t add a bunch of weight.

Honestly no, I’m 275# standing in the middle of it and it’s insanely strong. I am going to be doing Eva foam in it for a few reason. I’m not putting anything crazy back there, bikes, cooler, etc. this is what i’m lining the bed with.

Sorry I failed to update, y’all already know I stay busy 😂😬 Here’s the process on the bed. Cut stuff, weld it, grind it down. Going to get into the frame this Weekend 😎 The bed is 3/16 6061 aluminum

Been working on the body design so that I can get parts printing to make molds. I have several months of printing to complete so that I can make the custom body. The idea is to get parts designed and printed while I am working on the other pieces. Printing a single front fender will take about 6...

Small update, I’ve been busy with other aspects of life.. Anyways, this is the final pieces of the cab-to-bed structure before I seal the side with sheet metal and start on the aluminum bed. The bed bolts into the structures you see here. Frame work should be soon, very soon.

Whoever said men can’t multitask never met me 😂

Thanks! I wish I had a photo with the body on and doors of to show you but it really does make a difference! I always hated the “unclean” look with the doors off and body color mixed with the plastic trim and interior. It was a big improvement IMO.

I haven’t gotten much done, but my son sure did 😂 I’m working on the rear cabin framing tonight, should have some updated photos for the weekend.

Oh yeah! The Godzilla build is awesome! maybe in the future but I gotta do one major build at a time haha no, none at all😬

How did you know? 😂 it certainly is my place to get into a different head space.

The funny part on that is he broke his leg and had a lot of time strapped in the chair while I worked on the bronco. You just can’t see the cast under his sisters pants and socks

Just gotta love what you do 😂

Hahaha I’m trying! Thank you

I think everyone will be extremely happy with the final design of this. I agree is hard to make it look right. The gladiator is a funky one to start, as I don’t like the proportions on the rear. But I also put looks over “bed” function. The bed will appear 5’ long but the actual bed space is...
