Scout II Boatsides?

[Dubshot]

I am looking into boatsiding my 79 scout 2 and was curious if anybody here has ever done it? If you have do you have pictures or adivice to offer and maybe some help I buy beer for help!:fawkdancesmiley:

Its kinda of a fullsize thing to do. . . Well bigger rig thing to do. . . Never done it planning to do it in a month or so. Seems pretty straight forward figure out the angle u want the boatsides at and how high, mark the high and then find angle and then mark bottom cut with sawzall, plasma, etc and seam weld 1/4plate in place:awesomework:

Pretty much.

Pick a line, cut, weld a new 'rocker' in, then weld up something to take up the gap.

Seen a couple done. Some small, some not so small. Personally I think the big boat side look dumb unless done REALLY well.


Bring the rockers up to the floor it flat (especially if the rockers are rusted to hell) and leave it at that. No real need (IMO) for super boat slides, but too each their own.


Why don't you wheel the piss out of it first before cutting it to hell :flipoff: :redneck: :flipoff:
