Very Nice Work!

Did you build up the door to fill the gap? Could you please describe for us what you did there.

[Francesca Knowles]

I'd like to see more pics of the door job, too- do you have a long shot showing the whole door?

Thanks!

Francesca

Yeah. Built it to match my galaxie.
Only difference is it will be done before the car. Lol

finished most of the body work to the boler this weekend.
in the process of ordering new windows to finish it off

Hey, quick question for you. What body filler are you using? Definitely doesn't look like Bondo - and I've heard mixed things about it. I'm now thinking of Evercoat Rage Gold but may as well ask. Thanks!

Found a Norcold NR740BB fridge that had been returned to the store that was on sale.
So I picked it up for the Boler.

figured out the rough out dimensions wanted for my side windows


gonna be ordering new side windows and door window from RV Windows by Sun-View Industries

[Rick Mooyman]

Wow very nice. Just don't cut out for the new windows until you actually get them. And can confirm the radius.

Love that we are all restoring and customizing our Bolers to our needs.

Are you going to the Macklin meet in July 2014?

i always been told check the new windows for there thickness of the frame. boler windows tend to be thinner than most rv windows.

not sure how true this is but worth looking into so you don't have to build up the walls

The upholstery reminds me of the seats in my 1967 Mustang(s)! Too cool, old skool!
