Finished my front bumper project today. Came out much nicer than I had hoped. Still a lot of imperfections in the metal from all of the cancer that was in it, but from 5 feet it looks awesome. :lol: The whole truck is going to be a rattle can job while I am doing all of the body work anyhow, so I am more than happy with it for now.

Nice painting there!
Well decided to tear out my carpeting to see what surprises awaited me below but I was happily surprised that there's not tons of rot....Not bad for a '61!!!!!! Was trying to post driver's side floor but I can't I guess.... |

Vernsky,
I was ripping up my carpet in my truck today and I decided to glance back and I check out some small plaques that the previous owner put on the back of inside wall of cab...there are mostly from events that took place in Standpoint Idaho. Wonder if they still host car shows there, you ever been? Cheers :alky: el_bole |
Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I meant Sandpoint, Idaho...mayb I should cut back :lol::barn::barn:
el_bole P.S. Forgive me Vernsky but could you give me the name of those springs you put on your front end? How does it ride? PM name please....Gracias:ito: |
Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Well I could not leave well enough alone ... I had a running truck ... now I have a lot of work .. The other engine was a bit on the loose side , and a customer gave me an engine , so I figured since it had a/c and p/s on it it would be a good candidate ... only problem is I think since I made my own p/s hoses I may have wrenched the retun hose on the back of the pump , it looks like it is on the punky side .. this was suppose to be an easy swap , yeah right ...I got the p/s box mounted last sat. night and worked on it tonight til I found the cab has settled enough that I need to notch the firewall to lift the column up a bit so it is a straight shot for the box .. I will fix it right if I tear it appart this winter.... http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/n...owns/DPP_4.jpg

Went to the body shop and washed down the 65 C10 today to get a better look at the paint finish. That was about the only thing you can do in Phoenix when it's 111 degrees outside....

I got the rear section of my frame and rearend components painted in Eastwood's Rust Encapsulator today and will finish it off with their Extreme Chassis Black Satin tomorrow. I took a big jump for an old dude and instead of rattle cans which I used on the front suspension, and I have an old gravity gun that I haven't used for years, I thought I'd go "new school" and give HVLP a try. I went to Harbor Freight and bought one of their $40 HVLP guns (I figured it was good enough for the chassis) and did my first spraying with an HVLP. I love this thing.
