Re: What did you do to your truck today!

My son and I finally got back on the '67 swb stepper we are building for me to use in the last week. It had been setting in my garage since last fall when we moved the cab from the lwb frame to the swb frame and transferred all the '71 5 lug running gear to the frame.

We are building this as nice driver with a few mods here and there to make it what I like, which may not appeal to others. Since I plan to drive it and not sell it, I figured what the heck might as make it the way I like.

In the last week we ground down all the repair welds in the cab, pressure washed the frame and cab, primered the floor, installed a power brake booster and yesterday he shot gloss black paint on the frame, fire-wall and floor of the cab.

We are letting the paint dry for a few days and then we are going to prep the inside of the cab for priming and painting.

My son is the motivator on this project since he has rebuilt quite a few of these old truck, I am providing the finances and doing as much as I can to help.

Some day with what I have learned from my son I hope to do a project myself, only time will tell how that works out since I am getting to be an old guy.
