I started to do the back corner on the passenger side. The top and middle look great. The bottom is gonna require a little tweaking. I'll get some pictures this week.

Here's what I've been up to on the C-cab. It's been a few days since I posted any pictures, so here ya' go.
You'll see the back is closed in and if you look close, you can see the hinges at the bottom of the door opening.
This is the door frame folded down. My dad has a little electric scooter, so I wanted to make it easy for him to load. The door will fold down into a ramp so he can load the scooter. A winch will raise and lower the door so he doesn't have to pick anything up.
I decided to put full fenders and running boards on it. I think it's really going to set it apart.

Yes. Picture stock(ish) '23 Ford running boards and fenders that fit over the tires. Yes, the running boards will be functional. I figured it would be easier to step into the truck if it had an extra step, also.

Yeah RC. I found out that come tax time, I'm DEFINITELY getting a break and the shrinker/stretcher. I've been using the dog crap out of those two. The wheel and the bead roller are nice but the other two are really getting a workout.
