keg1 Posted September 11, 2013 Author Share Posted September 11, 2013 Nice work. Getting ready to do the dynamat thing my self I like how you cut it around the trans panel. Nice job.I figured if I ever wanted to take the floor out it would be a lot easier this way. I cut around the raised sections of the floor because I'm going to try putting hardwood laminate flooring in it so trying to keep it as flat as I can. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29782-replacing-rear-cab-panel-on-superliner/page/4/#findComment-205294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsb502 Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I figured if I ever wanted to take the floor out it would be a lot easier this way. I cut around the raised sections of the floor because I'm going to try putting hardwood laminate flooring in it so trying to keep it as flat as I can.I've been pondering the wood laminate for mine, I found some that's 3/8" thick I figured id level underneath and it wouldn't be too much taller than the rubber and insulation.

Phase 1 Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 You would still have to spread the roof 4 ways I measured one already, I was hoping the sides were straight enough but theyre not, it would still look awesome with a 4" chop on an RW, that long wide flat hood with a chopped roof would look like an aircraft carrier deck.There is a picture of an R model with a chopped top in this years ATHS Showtime ( just got it), on page 113.

Dirtymilkman Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 That thorough and good of a build deserves a custom dash. I was always a fan of the 359 corvette dash. Something with real wood and the gauges positioned nice. I have a thousand ideas going through my head for a dash.

keg1 Posted September 20, 2013 Author Share Posted September 20, 2013 The dash pad is already at the upholstery shop. He's supposed to do a little custom work on it. I told him not to get carried away with it but do what he thought would look good.

gearhead204 Posted October 2, 2013 Share Posted October 2, 2013 very very nice wish I had the time and coin to have done mine that way it was a short logger before I got it and either a log or the trailer tounge had been dropped on the drivers side of the roof took several days with a hammer and a pin gun to get it close enough for body filler and then a day of longboarding to make it work and look right. again very nice job!!!! like the dynamat too I think i'll have to try it Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29782-replacing-rear-cab-panel-on-superliner/page/4/#findComment-209573 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post keg1 Posted November 19, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted November 19, 2014 Didn't think it was ever going to happen but I finally got it primered two weeks ago. I had the day off so I got it blocked and wet sanded today. Its supposed to warm up this weekend so maybe I can make it black. 5 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29782-replacing-rear-cab-panel-on-superliner/page/4/#findComment-267306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post keg1 Posted December 19, 2014 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2014 I got the cab painted a couple weeks ago. I took the hood off. The windshields and back window are in. Cab lights and air horns are on. Was working on door windows when R model died on me so this gets put on hold again. Sorry pictures aren't to good. 4 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/29782-replacing-rear-cab-panel-on-superliner/page/4/#findComment-270964 Share on other sites More sharing options...
