Where is that "Tipping Point" toward getting carried away?
Tore my '62 SWB all down to replace the tired old 283 with a new crate 350.
Pulled front sheet metal completely to ease removal and cleaning. I pulled all of it so I could scrape and clean off 52 years of accumulated grimy oil, grease, and dirt more easily. Of course that leads you to wanting to paint the inner fenders, frame, A-arms, etc..... Then you start saying, maybe I should pull the cab and paint under it....may as well do the bed while I'm at it... Well, you get the idea. My original plan was a quick out and in of motors so I could enjoy driving the truck this summer since I haven't had the opportunity to drive it much yet. How do you all draw the line so you don't end up with a 5 year long torn down truck?? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
