Another nice weekend and now my cabs back on. Kit with rubber body mounts came with 2 spacers for front on each side. Not really sure how to know if I need them on or not.Put one on each side as that way I am only 1/2 wrong either way! Guess I'll know when front clip goes on.Got headliner,Heater/Ac hoses, dash pad and guages back in. Toughest part is figuring out where all the pieces are after setting most of the winter. Have to finish sanding box and replace the wood in it yet so prbably won't finish till late May.

*racedvl* · 03-24-2003, 06:16 PM

Wow, that is really looking good. I like the interior. Question though. . . Is that just alot of dust on the heater/ac box?

Solver · 03-24-2003, 06:22 PM

Yeah, everthing has been setting in the back of my wood shop all winter collecting dust. Gonna have to wash it so I can remember what the new paint really looks like

*racedvl* · 03-24-2003, 07:16 PM

Solver, I'm glad to see you're making great progress. Everything looks good. Wish I could say the same for my project. The box I bought from you is still sitting in the same spot from when I brought it home from your place. Keep up the good work!!!!!!!! BTW I did order a Vintage Air unit and if I remember correctly you said you have a friend who is doing that A/C route. If you have questions I may be able to help him/you. Call or e-mail. Cya
