Project Pee Paw

[Trevoc]

So it's been a couple of months since I last posted, but wanted to get on here and post some pics and update the project. My brother finally got around to getting some time to help start the teardown process. So first we started with the SWB:



Bad pic, sorry



We knew the SWB had been hit hard in the drivers side door, but did not realized the damage until we saw the rear cab mount bolts, both looked like this:











So the SWB is down to the frame only. Ready for the sandblaster

Next we started the tear down of the long wheel base:





We went ahead and changed out the passenger doors. The rust had gotten the best of the LWB's passenger door. The hinges were fallen out.

Next we sandblasted the SWB frame, 5 lug rearend and front k-member and painted all. I was going to use Por-15, but my brother said he has a problem painting over rust and dirt (reason he wanted the parts sandblasted). He painted the items with a chip resistent paint that is used on the frames of tractors and semi trucks. He has used it on several restorations with great success!!!!

With everything painted and looking very sharp it was time to re-assembly the chassis:





With the chassis back together, we went ahead and dropped the LT-1 from the 95 Z-28 into it's new home!!!:









We are super happy with how it's coming so far. We still have a long way to go.
