Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Got a little more work done on the roof. And took of the A pillar drip rail. I got it to look like it should have been that way stock. I can't wait to get a skim coat on it.

I already hammered down the drip rail though. http://belair.smugmug.com/photos/620929857_9iASV-L.jpg While I was at it I fit the door better, and extended it to get the gaps correct at the side cowl panel. Also shaved the mirror, side trim and the antenna hole http://belair.smugmug.com/photos/620929745_LLcFo-L.jpg http://belair.smugmug.com/photos/620929471_FvT5q-L.jpg http://belair.smugmug.com/photos/620929619_uEsRj-L.jpg |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I still have a lot more touch up welding to do, but ran out of gas. Need to get more Monday. Almost half way around the roof. Man is that time consuming. But worth it.
BTW that parts washer solution works good. Not great but good if you let it soak. Way better than nothing. |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Also taking off the A pillar was a great idea. It was rusting underneath it. Even if i was keeping it I would take it off to clean the rust, and treat it, and paint it . It is only spot welded on, and came off real easy with a chizzle.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
I have the frame almost done on the Studebaker. Put S-10 Differential in it with disc brakes. The U bolts had to be re bent so it would fit the lower spring mount,(I had to modify that too), it's the lower shock mount also. I had to make all new bigger brake lines and fuel line.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
The drip rail treatmant is very cool!
gonna be a very subtle mod, but well worth the effort :thumbs: |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
i agree with that its going to be a very nice truck .
i once read about someone closing the gaps on the doors of his camaro by welding weldingrod ontoo the edge of the sheetmetal and grind them down untill the gap was right all around it looked pretty good and i can immagine it works better then laying big welds or using filler |
Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up
Damn, you busy the other day your trucks coming along. Think I'm going to take my edge off the doors. I don't know about the roof? I'll see how yours turns out . Looks like a lot of work. How bad is it just to cut the drip edge off the roof?;)
