65 step lwb frame off resto
I started my frame off restoration on my 65 about a month ago. I've owned the truck for probably 10 yrs and a restoration was always the plan but I drove the truck for a long time and parked it in the garage about 3 yrs ago.
All I have to say is sandblasting is a PITA... ![]() Anyway, I have the 283 rebuilt, balanced, bored .060 over, etc. I"m working on aquiring the parts for ps, pb (disks), auto column, etc. besides the remainder of the tools needed to complete the project. I am having a little trouble finding a good donor truck actually. I think we are making pretty good progress considering we are only a month into it. Everything is disassembled, the frame is almost complete with sandblasting and the cab is nearly down to bare metal on the outside. It is almost time to break out the primer ![]() This messageboard appears to be a pretty good resource and I'm sure I'll plenty of questions in the near future. Thanks for all the good info guys. |
