Sick Pony: 74' Sport Resto Mod for Trail and Street

[scbronco]

Oh i definitely meant it! Its narrowed 7 1/4" on each side. I measuredd for a hypothetical 8" movement, but the tab that spot welds the taillight housing to the rear most bed beam is a half inch wide so it made more sense to use that as the stoping point. it really lines up well with the cuts in the bed rail and it looks like closing those cuts up will not be as terrible as i feared they could be.

I am also planning to abandon the factory style lower bed sides. the more i look at it it's just inviting a cool tube "mid" cage structure that will provide a "slider" along the bed rail and mimic the fender flare that used to be there. Ill post pics as it happens.
