Looks like a glass top and I don't think it could handle a hammer.

Thanks!! I made this bench out of the old horse stalls pictures with the truck below after I closed up the barn and turned it into a proper shop.

I belt sanded, stained, decided it was too dark and did a light belt sanding to get the antique effect.

The glass top is polycarbonate, very though stuff, but I'm afraid to hit it with a hammer!

It would be a good work bench.

Thanks, Mike!

Big progress today... Windshield and rear window are in! Took the glass experts two hours with two guys to get it done.

Stinking antenna button came right off. Any tips appreciated, I haven't searched the forum just yet.

Read window tint isn't too dark and the windshield, the band doesn't go very low. Well, it looks good regardless.

Funny! But if you're wearing a full face helmet, the nice cup holders will go to waste!

Headliner and seats are in today.  Guys coming over tomorrow to work on the hood adjustment.

Good leads on seat belts anyone? The ones I got are not like the original and won't work.

Brings down and signed up for vip sale. Now I don't have to edit my pictures before loading them...

Thanks guys! I really wanted head rest, cup holders and fabric. I could have rebuilt my bench, have the headrest welded in for less money, but these are nicer. Plus I have a bench seat for the shop.

Froto I looked at the site, what are you referring to as 'pic-a-part'?

I think he's referring going to a yard for a new seat is much easier on the walker.

Thanks!

Big day today, Blue took her first drive on the road in the years!

Lots of links to work out, but she's running awesome! Have a look.

Congrats! I am getting much closer myself! However for the next couple of weeks I will not get much work done due to a niece on hospice and not expected to be around much longer. Your truck is looking good and sounded good as well.
