project shorty 84

[low_84_inchaska]

I have some pictures i found at home from my camera, the truck has been blocked and had a ton of body work done to it since these pics. I stripped the truck down and then primed it with ncp270 , then blocked it to find all the bad spots in the body. After i found all the bad spots i repaired them with a stud welder, and smoothed with rage gold. I also filled a bunch of holes in the body and bed rail with my new little miller...nice unit,,,first time i have welded too. I have been calling my buddy who works on cars for help, he lives 250miles away. So now that i have the body work almost straight i guess i will put on 3 nice wet coats on it so it can sit in the garage all winter without rusting while i do the rocker, floor pan work?

here are some pics, of it a couple months ago earlier in the process. The bed is going to be line-x'd so i never stripped it.
