Thanks Karl

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Yes. I can't wait until I get to use the shiny parts that have been boxed up for way to long.

Thank you Bomp

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Got the door panels primed last night. There were a few dents that had to be fixed and a couple pin holes that needed to be repaired. Hoping to get some more done tonight.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

And here are the pictures of the door panels with the paint applied. I will try to post better pictures in a few days. Now on to painting the rest of the interior. Hoping my vent window weatherstrip show up this week so I can get those put back together as well.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Cool! Are you painting or having it done by someone?

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

A long time time friend of mine is painting it for me. He has been a painter for about twenty five years. We were trying to get the interior sprayed to how Dad but couldn't get it done in time.

Hope everything is going good with you.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Fresh paint is always a good sign, congrats!

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Thanks

I have been reading through thread and wow. A lot of great work and information in there. Your truck is looking amazing.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Looks nice! :chevy:

Thanks TJ

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Thanks I picked up some paint samples today :metal:

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

ask and you shall receive. My weatherstrips came in earlier today. Now let the headache begin.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

We had a pretty slow afternoon at work yesterday so I installed the glass back into the frames. Looks like today will be more of the same. Hoping to get the weatherstrips installed so I can finish the vent windows.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

A little more progress today. The vent windows are starting to take shape again. Now all that's left is to finish installing the rivets.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

And one completed vent window assembly. The passenger side will have to wait until Monday. If I done these for a living there is no doubt I would starve but still cheaper than giving $500 for a set of new ones.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Looks good man. Yeah, it's crazy what those cost new! :crazy:

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Thanks Phillip

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Saturday I went and picked up a few interior pieces after being painted. I'm still trying to decide to paint the recessed area of the door panel or leave it all the same color. I think all the pieces turned out really good.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

And a few other interior parts. I still have to paint the white letters on the ashtray. But all in all the interior is starting to come together.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Looking good. High quality workmanship!

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Thank you Johnny

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Parts are looking good Greg!

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Friday it was a little slow at work so I had a chance to assemble the passenger side vent window. Here is a couple pictures of both completed. Also my lever and knob kit came in from Fred's Truck Parts. Like a little boy I had to see how they fit. We are hoping to get the rest of the interior sprayed the week of Christmas.

Re: Greg65 build thread
 

Thanks Karl. Little by little we are getting there.
