So I began tearing down my 70 LWB BB about a year ago, only to put things on hold when I got laid off. But I have beat the odds and begun working on it again!

Re: Bglad's Build Thread
Just dropped the hood, cowl panel, fenders and doors off at the blasters, so looks like I'll be replacing floors in the mean time

Re: Bglad's Build Thread
Thanks! It may be a while before the truck hits the road again, but I'm making sure to take my time, and no short cuts. Plus I'm doing all the work myself. Getting the parts blasted is the first thing anyone else has done too it, other than having a couple people to help pull the cab, and bed

Re: Bglad's Build Thread
Just picked up my parts from the blasters today! Glad I had it done too, going to save me some sanding, and helped expose some more of the rust I might have missed.

Re: Bglad's Build Thread
Well brought the bad in had it blasted. Primed everything, so next week I'm going to start the body work on the Sides, and bed floor. Not too bad looking so hopefully they dont take too long. Need to order a new Front panel for the bed any recommendations as far as best quality??
