Re: 56 shop truck build

With my wife working night shift the past couple nights, I spent the majority of my time in the shop working on the truck. After seeing how ****ty the inner fenders looked in the above pictures, I had to get them stripped and painted, so I got that done.
I also welded in a couple patched on the floor. The previous owner cut a section out of the tranny hump spot so I cut a piece of sheet metal and welded it in.
Then I turned my attention to the wiring. I gutted out all the old wiring and man am I glad I did. I found over 12 splices from previous owners, trying to chase anything would have been a complete night mare. I have a new Rebel wiring harness that should be here Monday.
While I was under he dash I removed the heater box and fax so they can get checked out and painted to match the interior.
