Default workshop

That is a well organized and clean workshop !

Looks like Ford did a better job with the cab arch bars. The Cab 11 Chev. arch bars have a built-in misalignment PROBLEM, the GM factory arch bar jig must have been at fault. The drivers side is where the problem IS APPARENT.. Everything that bolts to the bar will not align up , a good amount of fettling is needed, you can see evidence of where the factory or somebody else has tried to improvise and do a quick 'fix', hammer marks are seen on the inner panel.
