Also like your hoist creativity
Thanks! I can't take credit for that, got the idea here on the forum. The long bed is just a smidge too long for the hoist though, but we made it work

Re: Penny

Made some great progress over the past couple of weeks. C-notch is installed on both sides. Also helped dad begin building a ramp for the storage building. Once that’s done, all the lawn and garden stuff will go out there and Penny will be able to go into the garage.
Merry Christmas!

Re: Penny

We did end up getting that ramp finished up, so that means Penny finally made it inside the garage. Man, I am glad we were able to make that happen. I have made some great progress this past week. Booster in place, master mocked up, brake lines ran but not completely tightened up yet, and new shoes, hardware, and wheel cylinders installed.
Yesterday I pulled the passenger door panel off and popped the dent out from the inside. There’s still some evidence of the dent but it’s wayyy less!
I also pulled the heater box out today after work and discovered a large crack in the heater core. It’s really nice being able to make progress even though it’s dark and cold outside. More progress coming soon!

Re: Penny

Great progress, it's definitely nice to be able to work on the truck in from the weather.
