Update on the 46 federal cab…

After getting it blasted and all stripped down I got it leveled up on the jig. I set up a laser level and used tape to mark where to cut and put some reference lines to keep everything lined up. Then I put in some bracing to keep everything in place and square once it’s cut apart. Next up is cutting the cab in half to stretch it 5”! Be sure to follow and like our page to follow along with the progress and updates on this build.
