Nice work! Those things are handy. Now you can make some extensions to go on the back of it so you can roll the cab on it's back to make it easier to work on the bottom of the floor. I made some for my 68, but I don't have any pics of it on it's back.

Progress is looking great my friend. Hopefully I will have some time to get back on mine here in the next couple weeks. Stinks when it's almost ready to fire and cant find time to get out there and make it happen.

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
 

thanks again for all the comments guys! Bob, i like your cab stand... we were thinking about welding some bent tubing like this ( to the back so we could easily flip the cab over... but i have to finish stripping the cab and the painter is coming friday to pick her up.

here's a few pic's of the finished firewall. and my body mount kit FINALLY made it so i got the core support mounted:D

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
 

Sweet! :metal:

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
 

test fit the radiator and it is a thing of beauty... my neighbor welded on 1" spacers on the bottom and the factory rubber mounts fit perfectly on them along with the factory radiator cover! my new rubbers will be here today so i just need to get some fancy stainless allen head bolts for the top of the core support and new bolts for everything else.

Re: Finally "Silvers" build thread!! ('78 swb 2wd silverado)
