I finished my floor insert.

Well I finished my floor insert for my 37 Chevy PU today. I've done a lot of floor rust repair with purchased patch panels before but this is my first attempt with my newly built bead roller. I've got a few things to learn still but I think it's pretty good. Let's see some of what you've built for metal floors. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=282049&stc=1&d=1172538710 Floor Board.jpg

 

I like the subtle hump...not a huge bulge.

Very clean

 

nice work, looks a clean job.

ive got this job to come on my A, i unpacked the bead roller yesterday to start making a stand for it.

 

nice job! what kind of bead roller do you have and what gage of sheetmetal did you use. how long did it take to make.

 

Nice work! keep the pics comming.

 

Nice Job !

 

looks good man, way to go!

 

Thanx everyone. I have a protools bead roller that I bought as a kit. The floor is 18g and seemed to be working the roller a bit hard so I have just made some modifications to it, gussets down the length of the two arms. I will post pictures of it as soon as I get it back together and I'll let you know how the mods work too. Including the 3/4" tube frame under the sheet and the trans hump it took about 6-8 hours. Thanx Again

 

i like a huge bulge...does that make me sound gay?

 

nice work, keep up the good work.
