Aussie VC 67 Dodge ute

frame was removed from the ute and the last cross brace was fitted....



frame refitted to ute, marine carpet was taped in place over the edges to allow for the seal on the top edge, and for clearance on the sides, then the sides taped up ready to cast the rolled sides...



two layers of 450GSM chop strand matting were applied over the tape so it could be easily be removed to be trimmed before being bonded to the frame...



rim bonded to frame...



top bonded to rim & frame, screws to be removed later and extra matting applied to the rolled edges to make flush with the top...





matting applied to all sides of the frame as extra bonding for the top...



next stage is to fill and sand the edges smooth and blend into the top section ready for primer...
