Edit... not sure why it duplicates the first photo a few times - pretty damn annoying .. anyone else have this problem recently with tapatalk pro recently? Or a galaxy 5?

It's got to be a Tapatalk problem. I tried to fix a few of the posts for you.

I've said it before and I'll say it again -- Tapatalk is a huge piece of junk.

 

[mcutler]

I figured so. .. thanks Shawn.

Head ache rack all but done

Very nice curves

 

[mcutler]

Thanks man. I was able to get the roof radius dead on, and about 80% on the door profile. The roll bending combined with typical clr bending could get very expensive if not careful. I was fortunate to only make one cut and splice of the two bars. I wouldn't do that on a buggy if I could help it but I don't mind on a work truck, save for wasting material. The rolls on the side rail were left over from the first two tubes fortunately, so they matched each other perfectly.

Dig your third brake light.

 

[mcutler]

Yeah but it's only a Pepsi

Prepping to go under primer as we speak.

 

[Croatan_Kid]

That's just awesome! Are you going to blast the whole thing before primer and paint?

 

[mcutler]

Nope, old fashioned way, been sanding day and a half, just now finished primer.
