Poured a concrete floor in my barn a few months back with plans of installing a 2 post lift this year. At the locations where the post columns will bolt I dug out 4'X4' sections and made the floor 10" thick. Have rebar and screen throughout the entire floor, Picked up this Snapon lift in the meantime so I can start working on permanently mounting and fiber-glassing the running boards etc. Need to work on all panel gaps. The roof is chopped 2.5", body channeled and running boards lifted above the lower reveal line. Took a couple inches off the door bottoms and shaped them more like the Ford (curved) to match the running board lines.

I like what you have done so far, looks good!
I see you have back up 4" grinders🙂

Dewalt Grinders "Two pack is $99" at Lowes. I just get sick of changing, wire and grinding grits. Kids know what to buy me for XMAS! Plus when I "get to grinding" I can let them cool off, usually burn one up every year. Occasionally I drop one and of course it lands and cuts the friggin cord ;D
P.S I have another 4.5" battery operated grinder on the other wall..I also hate running extension cords all over the place to cut one bolt ;)

I think curving those doors to match the running boards was a great idea. It looks really nice.

Thanks..the bottoms were pretty rusted out to begin width....easier to shape than weld in a repair panel.

And just look at all those saftey gaurds in place too! ;)
I'm a bad bad man!(or stupid) Not a saftey gaurd or trigger saftey on anything. :o

Dang sammons...do I now need to lay out my electric 7" and air grinder/cut off collection? :o :o :o
Tell you one thing..I always wear leather gloves whenever possible and googles.

Lol, was just the no gaurd thing😁 To be honest, the first 4" Mikita i got (with gaurd in place) I put a cut off wheel on. Scared the crap out of me with the higher rpm. I only use for grind disc and flap discs. I use my little air with cut off wheel. Running around 90psi it turns fairly slow.
Always have my readers and face shield on. Wish i could use gloves, my crooked fingers won't go in🙂
