Dustman, if your damage looks like the truck in the link (more or less) I will be doing a metalshaping demo April 21st on fabricating the same panel as you need. I normally take a grunch of photos when I do anything so there should be a tech thread on the subject afterward. I plan on using basic shop tools in the hopes that it can be duplicated by most anyone without having to go buy any machinery for a one time fabrication. Hammers, home-made dolly's, perhaps a torch, etc. | | | | | Joined: May 2009 Posts: 41 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: May 2009 Posts: 41 | Yessiree, that's the panel. I only wish mine looked half that good! I'm missing quite a bit of the panel. The truck was patialy disassembled by the previous owner and I think the old windsheild was booted out. I'm confident that I can build the panel, but getting the shape and size correct is the problem. Any interest in selling the demo panel?
