As you saw trucks were spun around to start the interiors.

Stripped the front wall and removed all the screws and 1/4 in riveted all the panels - even those with large spans in between screws . Mading it solid.

Removed all but the center window frames from the inside and added 14 ga steel (that is all will say about what quality of steel) over the windows and the front nose, as they will not be needed for the end project. The windows are just solid in place.

Moving on - a much needed reinforcement was added to the front wall with a 3/4 CD plywood outer layer to make the bed framework out of.

The roof a/c unit was cut out and placed
The roof 6x4 rack was installed with the aforementioned zerts.

Pulled the lenses from the marker lights and will paint the housings tomorrow as well as the rack bolts.
Have the license plate light housing to install tomorrow and duplicate everything onto truck #1 tomorrow.

Did remove the inner framework from all but the center windows and covered with the same reinforecement as the front nose of the box. Will just secure these windows from the exterior to not flip out.

ALso did remove all the screws from the center wire harness access panel to gain access to future install.

Just so all are up to speed - this is by myself with no help on 2 vehicles. What gets one to #1 gets done to #2.

In my spare time I did get in the defroster hoses and clamped in.

Only the start foundation of the interior.
