Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I did the same exact thing, being as I am deployed to the Stan right now as well. I am thinking (after all my extensive research) that after completing Project Heaven I am going to try and do all the work on my 68 by myself...Engine/drivetrain were never the issue but I am going to dive into rust repair and paint myself this time to save the STUPID amount of money I spent on Heaven! LOL

Sanded down the tops of the bed wood. I will put on the first coat of urethane tonight. Bought my wife a set of american racing wheels for her mustang. Should be worth some points for chevy parts.

and here is the boy with the bed wood. He would rather work on the truck than hang with his friend across the street. Good times!

Purchased a set of Dog dish hub caps off this site. I have been looking for a set for some time for the right $$$ scored today!!! (Watched it rain and tore apart a #37 Ford front end for Hot Rod project)

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I drove my truck for the last time before disassembly today (it was a special time...sigh). My friend came by with his son to help disassemble my truck, so, my friend and his son and myself and my son pulled the front sheet metal, pulled the motor/trans and pressure washed the front suspension and frame.

Today I removed the bench seat, fender wells, fenders and doors. I was also able to get the gas tank and sending until installed and almost finished painting the back half of the frame.

Fired her up today. Right around 50 degrees today in Colorado. Doesn't look like a white Christmas this year. Drove it up and down the street a few times to charge the battery. Put the final coat on the bed wood. I will begin assembly the day after tomorrow(the wife may seize up if I spend the the day in the garage)

Put the windshield washer bottle holder and bottle on the fender wall. listened to a vacuum leak at idle and thought about tracking it down.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

First sunny day around here for the last ten days.

So, while "The Boss" was in the kitchen putting together a serious Christmas Eve spread, I went over to the shop for about four hours. I finished the gas tank vent lines (almost), installed the dash pad...still need to tweek it a little....put in glove box door bumpers (I used an earlier- '60's glove box emblem to piss some "proper" folks off, but mostly to cover one of my paint boo-boos), hand-set the defrost vents, installed the Vintage Air center vent (I'd already cut the hole), used some sound deadener material to block off the old radio grill because you could see thru the front window to the inside of the dash. I figured that at night, with any lights on in the dash, it would look really funky without blocking it off. Polished out the inside sill of the driver's door. Found some dents that I'm just going to live with this go-round (Rat Rod, you know).

When I got home, I took the final shot in the driveway. I thought I was outta doe!!!!
