Re: Project Slo-Go 67
its a BC/CC i have the paint code in the garage. my buddy gave me about a 1/2 quart that he had left over, iirc it's a BMW silver. I have the paint code if you want it, he uses the MATRIX system line. PM me as i am easily distracted on this site for some reason :)
This weekend is the last weekend for deer season , so hopefully we get some weekend work going again.... |

Small update we have the serpentine setup completed. We decided to shave the wire channel instead of capping it. still need a final grind, and few touch up welds in a couple of places. Will continue sanding the firewall, underside and inside the cab to bare metal. Trying to get it to my buddy's paint shop in a couple of weeks.

Picked up some seats for my son's truck. I bought them at lunch, and put them in the garage. When he arrived from football practice i told him to go start working on the truck, he was in shock when he opened the garage... :metal:

Re: Project Slo-Go 67
NICE!!! I'll bet he was in shock!!!

Re: Project Slo-Go 67

We made some progress on the dash repair, i cutout the rust, and hand formed the replacement with hammer and dolly and some knee bending, pie cuts etc. It took me a couple of tries, but am happy overall with the outcome since i dont have any metal working tools etc... :metal:
|
Re: Project Slo-Go 67
Brother, you are kickin' butt.
Good job - you wanna do my suburban to Crew cab conversion???? |
Re: Project Slo-Go 67
Nice work. I'm with you on limited sheetmetal tools. It makes a person get creative on how too shape a piece of metal. Keep it up.:metal:

I need a quote to. Well you said a mouth full about your son ,.Just the other day my son was helping me. I told him to go get something from the house he never came back!!! I was like what the hell is he doing!!! I had mud all over me. So I don't want to walk all the way from the back of 2 acers so, I walk to the front he's got mud all in the house and he's playing the play station .So I tell him what happen? He tell me I'm tired , "I said man if you don't get your but out here and help me. Do you think when you get a job!! you can tell your Boss you tired ,do I tell you I 'm tired and then just come home in don't go back to work, or don't pay bills we have to work so do you.. :lol: He will thank you later. I thank my mom all the time. Sorry about all that.... keep up the good work ... |
Re: Project Slo-Go 67
Thanks for the reply, My son is staying stoked especially since it will be ready to go to my buddy's body shop soon, we just need to finish patching up some more spots on the firewall.
Good luck on your shop, I wanted a 20x40 but we got annexed to city so i ended up building a bricked 16 x 32 .. Keep your son heading in the right direction, they will appreciate later on in life. |
Re: Project Slo-Go 67

Re: Project Slo-Go 67

Re: Project Slo-Go 67
