    Going for an nfab style going to use some 3" pipe from wheel to wheel then some 2x1 tubing for the steps one for each door and one for the bed on each side i know i will have some interesting cuts on the rectangle tubing but its an idea might change though to round tubing

    Nice looking truck.

    How you gonna cut the tubing, 45 em and make a 90 or what? It should be a pretty easy even if you do go with some different angles... just remember to check everything atleast twice before you cut and you should be good to go :waytogo:

    It really comes in handy bein able to weld. I worked this last summer at a fab shop and after about a month or so I had it down nice n good. I thought about takin a class but I think I learned more from actually workin and doin jobs than I would have in a class.
