Re: PO has me PO'd
Thank you...I've been patiently waiting for the next set of pics.
As usual, looks great. |
Re: PO has me PO'd
If you wait for me, you might die of old age before this project gets done. Thanks for the comps.
That was the last pc. of the puzzle for the 'B' post, just 1 small bracket underneath. Now its all welding and grinding in this area, then I can start moving to the forward area. I don't think I am gonna hit my May deadline. J. |

Re: PO has me PO'd
Solder sure looks nice, but what a pain to mess with, hope it's unleaded. Had a brother-in-law almost die from lead poisoning. Kinda wish I'd made a piece to fit at that corner on mine. You've almost got the hard part done.

Most of the fitting is done on the front, just some touch up trimming. This plate I'm trying to recess is taking longer than it should, I think I outthought myself on that one! haha dumb idea What kinda progress you got goin? Fire up the BB yet?? |

Yeah, I fired her up a couple a three weeks ago, man that sucker has sure got some throttle response. I think I'm going to like the VooDoo cam and stealth intake combination.
I finished painting and clearcoating the dash and bulkhead. Now I'm waiting for my next pension check so I can get the firewall pads, then I can reinstall the brakes and steering so I can move er outside and clean it up. |

Re: PO has me PO'd
Hey Rusty, nice work as usual, hard to believe what it once was!! Glad to hear you got the BB running, haven't heard my motor in 3 years haha
Fixing those doors had tobe a pita, don't think I coulda dun it, no payshaints Could you post up some pics of how your bulkhead is mounted up. It looks like it is mounted behind the 'B' post and into the bedsides. I want to move mine back about a foot and a half. Finally found a set of slots like yours, now I just got to pay for them. Talk to you later, some of us have to go to WORK |

The bulkhead can be placed further back but you will have to add extensions of sheetmetal on the sides of the bulkhead where it bolts to the "B" pillar. The top and bottom won't matter.
Just one note, if your using a half cab you won't have any place for the top to bolt on the bulkhead unless the top of the bulkhead is extended also. If your using it as storage with a full top you will have to add a couple of pieces of angle at the top to bolt through the bedside the floor won't matter. |
Re: PO has me PO'd
Looking incredible!

Your shelf idea won't work, I need my seats to tilt back. Thanks for the thought anyway. How does it fit to the bedsides, is it cut out to match that contour? Dude you gotta change yor handle, doesn't fit anymore with that shiney interior. Don't post anymore pics, your putting me to shame. J/K You might get my post count up to 10,000 with that truck looking so good. J. |

Nope, it's contoured to fit the pillar the bedsides will be farther out. I added a piece of metal to mine to extend the bulkhead to fit the bedsides. When I get all the junk out of the back of mine i'll snap some pics for ya'. By the way, I didn't mean to hijack your thread. |

Jaros, here's a couple of shots of the rear of the bulkhead I promised. I added a piece of steel to each side of the bulkhead to waterproof the sides.
The pieces are fully welded to the bulkhead and tacked to the bedside then sealed with seam sealer as well as the bottom. |
