Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Looks cleaner than mine. Must be that fancy camera you have. I thought your trans was a 700r4. You must be getting excited to go for a drive.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Looking really good Alan.:metal: So you going to be driving it soon?:uhmk: Got to be close isn’t it? I am getting close to having the shop ready for projects:mm: then as soon as the motor is back in my S-10 I will pull the cab off the 64 and get her down for blasting . So I can start on the floor pans and rocker panels. Looks as if I am getting started as you are finishing up.:thud:

I'm sort of slow at times (mentally) I cleaned the sitting tape out of the track for my passenger side window with a screw driver and a hammer. Thinking there has to be an easier way. Well today I discovered it on the drivers side. That stone fit perfectly. Took my time and still done in a minute. :metal: |

Didn't get the bed done, but did put the textured coating on it. The main reason is to keep rocks for starring the paint on the wheel tubs and too cover up some hammer marks and other defects. Meow Meow. :haha: The can requires a special gun and tip that is pretty inexpensive. I don't know the cost my paint rep donated it. :metal: He gave me one can and it barely got it covered once. I would have liked another coat on the tubs. |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
The bed is painted. :ennyd: Pics tonight when I get home.

Last few. I brought home the gas door to compare colors to make sure it matches. It's the same paint, but I couldn't remember which tint of sealer I used.
Now I'm going to sand with 800 and clear it. Still have some more parts to paint some color on for the bed, but the majority of it is done. |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Your killing me Alan.........I thought I was going to sneak up on you, with my truck painted first........Looks very nice, what clear did you use.

I rolled it outside to washed it inside and out and to check the color match. It looks like it will be fine. But the glove box door doesn't match the dash. I think it is because I used a Sikkens Hugger orange base I had left over from another job. I wasn't worried about it matching the outside because they were not side by side. |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
truck looks great that dash is killer

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
That truck is going to be way too nice to drive ......

Well we have our good days and bad. Nothing went well today. First I ran around to 2 different uhpolstry shops. They both wanted $650 and they said they couldn't color the seat belts. Now I'm on the look out for dark gray or black seat belts. Started sanding the TG with 800 and went thru in a couple spots. This is not a bashing at all. They make quality products. I have been in contact with Mar-K about an issue with the rear sill. I told them I will post pics here so they can see the issue. Maybe it's just me. I bought the rear sill over 2 years ago and never test fitted it. It is nearly impossible to do that with 2 people with the setup I have. That's my fault. Note to self always test fit. ;) I can only get one bolt in each side. The top of the bed will not tilt in enough to get the 2nd bolt in. I took pics of the difference between the old and new. The old has more of a relief cut than the new. I didn't cut it and find out. Even with that cut done I'm not sure it will sit down enough on the rear sill. I will wait on their response. I have the TG fitted with the old sill and wonder how the new one will affect the fitment. |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Hey Alan, what seatbelts do you have that you cant use? What color and type? I am looking for some for mine if you want to sell them. I prefer a tan or black belt. Let me know if your interested in getting rid of them.
|
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
i'm going to agree with you alan! i know that not having the relief cut is part of whats stopping you! it needs to look like the old rear sill relief cut, and it would bring the side down, but not sure if it will touch the sill! you have a bigger gap between the bed and the sill then mine did i was having the same problem when i grafted the '70 steel to mine! it's a pita! whats wrong with your old sill, can you not use it?
|
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Oh I see what belts you have..Look like Silverado seats, so that wont work for me...UNLESS...you just send me the seats, that would work out great!! lol
|
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Hey Alan I have a set up brand new Black lapbelts!
|
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
You are right, that relief cut is shaped wrong and is not deep enough to properly fit the bedside on the rear sill. I am afraid you will have to cut it down to give more clearance.
We apologize for the part being wrong and for your inconvenience. Thank you for letting us know so we can make it right. This problem has been corrected in our process. One more time we are grateful to members of this board for feedback that helps us improve the quality of our product. Mar-Ktech |
