Did a few things this weekend

I had Sunday off to my self because nobody was home to bug me , so I figured I'd work on my truck some. I painted the inside of the bed with some flatblack Rustoleum, looks a lot better than the putrid blue it used to be. I also painted my front and rear ends, along with the frame and wheelwells. While all that was drying out, I set to work on my tranny hump. Since it was for a Rockwell t-case, I had to rework it for the NP205. I cut the original hole bigger, in to and oval. I test fitted it in the truck (had to take the seat out ) and it was a perfect fit. So then I dug around our metal pile and found a old lawnmower fender, and cut it to fit the other half of the hole in the hump. I screwed the plate in using the original Rockwell screw holes for the shift boot. I drilled holes on the other side for the np205 boot. It was really gumping, but it doesn't look that bad. I made it so I could swap back to a Rockwell without switching humps around, just swap the plates back. I'll get some pics of it later.

Some pics of the hump. I think it looks pretty good.
