Nothing special besides a Mittler brothers bead roller. Everything is just basic hand and air tools.

Which one of their bead rollers do you use?

Great work!

Looks nice! I like the way it flows.

Couple questions, are the plans to keep the 409 in there? Also, how serviceable are the parts that are covered by the panels going to be? I've always wondered if that's a consideration when doing panel work like this. I'm mainly looking at the hood hinges and radiator.

Engine bay looks killer! Great work, can't wait to see more.

Awesome work! Stunning skills on the metal fab department!!! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Its a 348 w motor and yes that will be the engine going in the car. The radiator cover is removable fairly easy and you can access the upper control arms for alignment purposes. There is an access panel in the wheel well for the hood hinge. Anything outside of that and all the panels need to be removed. Removal is fairly easy though.

Awesome work man! As said before, post more stuff you are working on!

Awesome metal skills. Love it.

I am a big fan of your work Johnny..:thumbsup: Looking forward to seeing more ...

Thanks alot Cris! I truly appreicate it.

Extremely nice sheet metal work!

Hey Mohawk:

What gauge steel do you usually use for all this sheet metal work?

The work is beautiful. If you offered a subscription video series on sheet metal instruction, I would sign up, fast. It could be a way for you to make a few extra bucks as you go along with a project anyways. I know someone else that does this in another field and he does well. He uses Vimeo to post and charge for subscriptions.

Wow, would love to see a build thread on the 67-72 C10. Love the inner wheel wells. More pics please! :flashie:

18 gauge cold rolled, and videos are in the works. ;-)
