Default Homemade Rubie Rails fresh out of the oven

Just finished up my custom rails made from 095 1 1/2 tubing. First time using this super grip black powder. I like it.

I'm not a huge fan of the Q store, but it does look like a set of hinges for a 2dr runs $60. That's not too bad. If you had auto salvage around, I bet snagging a few off a damaged door would be really cheap....but we all know that is getting harder and harder than it used to be.

Don't need the hinges, I can make them up on my lathe. I need to source some lock latches to keep the doors shut.
