Put Gibbs on the bare metal rear fenders and bed to preserve them until next spring.

Made (2) new stake pocket tubes to repair the hacked up rear stake pockets on my stepside bed. Installed them in the rear pocket holes, welded and ground them. They'll need some filler, but came out pretty good.

Boy lakster that sure does look pretty! Nice job on the stripping. Gibbs is good stuff, but would take alot of effort to keep rust from creating in the gaps and crevices and stuff

Got all the bed wood in and bolted down, then used my shop crane to lift it and set it back on the frame and bolted down. Started at noon and finished at 9 pm. Was fun without and extra set of hands.......lol. Will try to get pics up tomorrow.

Pulled the glass out of the cab, and got the entire front crossmember and suspension off the frame of the '65. Now I just need to figure out a way to get the bolts holding the cab to the frame off by myself. Pics posted in my build thread.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

got the new (to me) box set on this weekend and rolled it out in the driveway to check out the damage. got called in to work so it sat out in the rain all week. went to push it back into the shop today and because of the incline to the sidewalk i got the truck high centered on the bumper. a passer by stopped and helped me push while my girl tried to avoid taking out the door while the he proceeded to tell me about his old 63 and how he has been watching the build up all summer. feels kinda nice to have fans. nneighbor stopped in yesterday to check up on me. he built up a 66 back in the 80s:metal:

Installed a new air filter and replaced the constantly corroding steel battery hold down with a plastic version sold for boats. I never found a paint or plastic coating that could resist the battery fumes.
