    OH OH what have I done!! Rear 1/4 chop

    Well i bit the bullet and broke out the lil angle grinder & zippo rear 1/4's cut and gone. I'll try gettin some foters up tomorrow. Scary SH!T i can tell ya. Have never cut a not to bad panel up before but is actually an easy task. I just followed the instructions from a link i think i posted in one of Big Rigs threads. The next bit patching and folding tags/tabs will probably be more difficuilt but not a biggie I dont rekon. I'll keep ya updated hopefully done over the weekend

    IF YA DONT GET STUCK YA AINT TRYIN HARD ENOUGH........OR YA TOOK THE CHICKEN TRACK
