Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire black betty (1977 F250)

Tonight we cut this off the front of the truck with the plasma torch.



Frame horns are restored to stock so the new bumper will be tucked back in there where it is supposed to be.



Next we removed all the bed floor bolts so the bed is loose from the frame. We had 8 extra ones because this truck had a drop down goose neck ball installed at one time (poorly done, this is coming out)

Then I had Nate sand the inner bed side pinch weld lip to help expose all of the spot welds for drilling.





My spot weld driller is a little more than most hobbyist have laying around.





splitting knife/chisel.

We are done for the night, possibly more tomorrow.
