Last Friday Saturday on Sunday on worked steadily on my bed and frame. Earlier in the week after work I took the loose rust off then shot it with Jasco Prep & Prime to kill off the rust then I masked off what I needed to. Friday night I sprayed two gallons of Transtar Undercoating. Saturday I sprayed two quarts of Gloss Black Hammerite mixed with two teaspoons of copper pearl and one of gold. I haven't decided whether or not to clear the bed yet, but the tops of the rails will get shot. Sunday I masked off the letters on the tailgate for the silver base which will get sprayed in the purple candy that should be here today. But even the purple will get sprayed over, the trucks main color will be black base with rootbeer candy and anything purple will turn a burned orange.

Got the grill, headlights and cans off. Also got the horn off and took a few mins to locate bolts to start getting fenders off. Got the braces off that connects front to radiator support. Bed is cut loose just waiting on help to set it off. Hopefully have all the front off by the weekend.

Finally got the 5 lug axles in. Found out the 15x10 with 5 inch backspace won't fit so I ordered some with 4.5. Good thing I kept the junk yard rollers!

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
Washed the '63 Thursday evening. Friday, waxed and generally cleaned up real good for the Buggy Festival in Carthage, NC on Saturday, May 9. I thought my truck looked good until I saw some of the other trucks parked around me.

I spent the day yesterday putting the engine and transmission back in the 62. Looks like I might have to modify the trans crossmember. Try to get some pics this afternoon.
