A twist

Most restorers are looking to plug or patch holes in their truck floor pans. I was looking to put a hole in mine.

I believe he cut out the area on his 2wd cab that is stamped like the top of the battery box lids then welded in the same area with the hole stamped out that came from a 4wd cab so he could have the undercab box.

Atleast i think
