Figured out that Chevy designed the side mount spare to be movable depending on what access was needed to the bed. So I'm putting it back to where the spare fits in the indent on the fender.

Got that old box setup out of the bed. The thing is steel and heavy. Had to use my motorcycle jack to get that crap out of there.

Man, I like that breather you have on there. Do you mind if I ask what it is and where you got it?

Also, it looks like you have a hydraulic clutch set up like my '60 GMC...what part did you use to set up your brakes and clutch?

Thanks!

Since I had to turn her around to put in the new door gasket on the passenger side; I decided to dust her off and get her all shiny to get some Glamour Shots by my deck under the Oak Tree. I lost the first hub cap on our maiden drive last month, never did find it. I have to buy another.....unless someone wants to donate to poor 'Lil Jake

Sorry no pictures, but I drove my 65 to the local Batteries+Bulbs store for a battery for my welding helmet and to breakfast. Then once home, continued fabbing patch panels and welding them in the floor on my 66.

Over the past two days I was able to bolt up re-worked doors, which I lined with peel n seal and installed pass side hood hinge...

I installed door seals from Painless and they are awesome. They clip on and have an adhesive that is already applied in the groove. I am currently waiting for the first coat of varnish to dry on my bed wood. I got a new set of belt line window fuzzies from brothers and they are horrible. The truck is fully drivable and I am enjoying it.

I entered my truck in its first car show yesterday. This was the 22 annual Veterans car show hosted by the local chevy dealer here in Goldsboro nc.
To my surprise I won the peoples choice award in the truck class. Then they really surprised me by presenting me best in class for trucks. Two awards and
$500.00 cash for my first show.

Which side of the doors do you apply the peel n seal to.

It's doesn't look like much but to me it is a big step. I was able to finally get the inner rocker panel after getting the lower A & B pillars tack welded in. It's been a slow process with only being able to get a few hours a week to work on it.

Installed the cluster and went on the first test drive. Found out the brakes won't hold pressure and the OD trans sis bad.

Installed a 1974 PS box using the CaptainFab bracket.
Joined a safer 1974 telescoping lower steering rod to the upper steering column using a U-joint I bought on eBay. The U-joint has DD female connections with through bolts. My original 1965 steering shaft was shortened and the end milled to a DD shape. I also moved my steering wheel 3" closer to the dash for a more comfortable position. The inner and outer column sleeves were sectioned and re-welded to make things look more original.
