How did you and your trucks fair in the wind storm last night TJ?

Re: Project two tone.
 

I stayed dry. haha Poor Crustine was out in the weather though. Course my 66 is in the garage. We had no power until 6 A.M. Glad that's over. lol Ya'all ok up there in GP?

Re: Project two tone.
 

Lots of wind here in Central Point. No damage at my place.
I had some small branches from the neighbors trees in my yard but no biggy.
The 'Burb and my dads 70 C10 were nestled safely in the garage. The Nova is tucked away in Klamath Falls for now.

Re: Project two tone.
 

That's good. :)

Nice parts TJ wished I had that sand blaster. Been thinking about looking for one.

Re: Project two tone.
 

Thanks! It'll come in handy for sure!

Re: Project two tone.
 

Thanks for the link TJ. We bought one of those radiators, without the fan and shroud. They look good and hopefully will keep a truck with Vintage Air cool.

Re: Project two tone.
 

Happy Memorial Day guys!

Had the day off of work and decided it was time to get moving on the 66 for a change!

This evening I got the cab Completely stripped down and ready to be sand blasted. :metal: :bann:

Unfortunately I didn't get any photos of the finished result, but I did snap these while working. :mm: Check comes this week so I'm a start packing up on sanding supplies and getting some primer and paint coming this way and hopefully within a few weeks I'll be laying down paint! Lotta cleaning and metal patching to do so we'll see. But when I get on a roll it's hard to stop. haha Later guys! :chevy:

Re: Project two tone.
 

I'm sure you will be painting soon. Looking good TJ.

Re: Project two tone.
 

I hope so! lol! :chevy:

Re: Project two tone.
 

Painting next week??? :mm:

Re: Project two tone.
 

I wish brotha! lol Lotta clean up to do, and I'm a bit picky on making the paint come out so I'm a take my time on this. Going with a two tone scheme and metallic so it's gotta be done carefully. Super excited though! :metal:

Re: Project two tone.
 

Hey guys!

So Harbor Freight is having their big fourth o July sale. So I wizzed out there yesterday evening after work and purchased a nice portable garage to serve as a paint booth and sand blasting booth. :metal:

Got most of it together early this morning. Still have to put the back covering on and then the front roll up door. Also gonna build a floor, and a rolling stand for the cab so I can move it around with ease. Got some nice off road swivel tires for that. Also picked up 4 50 pound bags of number 30 sand. Anyhow! Been a fun weekend so far! Sand blasting is coming up soon! See ya! :chevy:

Re: Project two tone.
 

Looking good. I was thinking of buying one of those for a paint booth myself.

Re: Project two tone.
 

Great plan Brotha!!! :metal:

Re: Project two tone.
 

Thanks guyz! Hoping to get to work on that rolling stand for the cab today. Really liking the tent...more shade and it'll keep the pine needles and crap off the cab. haha :chevy:

Re: Project two tone.
 

Well I have been blasting away on this cab. The underneath is done and now I am onto the floor boards. Taking a break tonight as I am exhausted. lol 2nd picture isn't that great because I didn't feel like rolling the cab...it's a bit of a chore even with the off road rolling stand. :chevy:

Re: Project two tone.
 

Great work Brotha!!!:metal::metal::metal:

Re: Project two tone.
 

WOW T.J. you da man that going to look awesome, that's the way to do it...keep it up...

Re: Project two tone.
 

Thanks guyz! :metal:

Lotta rust repair to do, but I'm gonna blast the floor board and do the repair and then get the bottom primed as it is starting to surface rust. Got the epoxy order from Eastwood on Monday, but as slow and lazy as their being it looks like I won't see primer until next week. :waah: Oh well, plenty of blasting to do anyway. :chevy:

Re: Project two tone.
 

Nice work TJ!

Re: Project two tone.
 

Thanks!
