Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
6-2 monday, got a little time in today. power went out cause of a storm. I buttoned up a few things up front with the rad mount. Got cab off frame and started welding up some loose ends. Next weekend should be alot of stripping cab and frame, final welding and maybe laying down some chassis saver.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
6-5 Been putting in some hours on the engine, long story short I got behind with it. had to mill down my stud bosses. I got the heads done and ready to bolt on. I'm going to transport it up north where my truck is. I'll then just put it on frame for start up rather than using my start stand and cluttering up my small garage. So I'll be bringing it up next weekend and that will give me a little time to finish getting stuff like WP, alt, dist. Here is shot of my custom timing tape I make. I have some for 8" and 7.5" balancers. I got the timing cover on and balancer. Just need oil pan and top end put on. This thing has been on and off for way to long, need to fire it up soon.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
6-9 got a bit tied up this weekend but I am close to being on track. Got front end blown apart, stripped and coated. Still gotta finish up the back, then the bottom of frame. Gotta do shock mounts up front too but I'll worry about that down the road. Might wait one more weekend to bring engine up. Still undecided on what to put over this chassis saver. I still have a good bit of aluminum paint I might coat it with but I'v been liking the black.
Oh and I managed to strip the top, do some final welds and coat in about 4-5 hours. I used some cheap flap discs for angle grinders, 40 grit. Got 20 or 25 of them for like 30 bucks off amazon. I used 4-5 discs so far. So still cheaper than sandblasting. As much as I don't like taking the time to strip a frame, this method is way better than using a wire wheel. been there done that, never again.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
thanks guys, got another truck hot off the northwest. but..... It's not mine, but....I'm the one building it so its cool. I'll get on this next year along with bouncing around on a couple of my other trucks. This year I got the 49' to finish and my buddies 54' panel that is coming in next weekend. Had the 51' out of some pics with her. I still want a pic of all my AD truck and ones I'm working on, but its gonna be tough cause there are alot of them to line up.
Anyway, the patina is staying, shooting for some crazy hp with an LS turbo or two!!! (be a learning experience). Ford 9", maybe a scott's IFS , lowered and coil overs in back, reinforced frame and the list goes on.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
6-16 Billy, I didn't find this one, my friend did. He's gonna be giving alot of business by the sounds of things. He finds the best patina I swear. Just sent me a link to two killer COE's patina's.
So I didn't get much of anything done on my project due to fathersday weekend and moving a bunch of projects around in the compound. What you see outback is just a few of them. I'll be expanding that lot very soon with fencing and gravel and hope to line up most all my projects. I still alot of stuff to move around. Should be getting my friends panel this weekend if all goes well. So I'll be working on that every monday, he has a thread on here already. All I go done was some stripping of frame and some final welding. Gonna box in some of the rear and coat next weekend. Still gotta take rear apart flip frame and do underneath. So another day or two on frame and it should be covered in chassis saver. Then I gotta figure out what I'm putting over that. Wanted to do silver since I had some left, but I'm just liking the black frame. Also traded a ford 9" for a 4x4 60's truck frame and a decent bed I can use for my 55.1 series.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
thanks guys, the coating is called chassis saver, I think I got the antique satin black, I'll have to double check. Its just like POR and all them other brands. Here is their site. I got it off ebay though. Its the best/affordable stuff I'v used.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
6-23 Didn't get much time in this weekend either. Friday I went up and helped my friend with his belair. Sat I took a fam day, Sunday I got a little time in. Some final welds, started making boxing plates, and redid my gas tank mounts. Started stripping frame more. Got the bottom front coated, need to finish up back half, then paint. Should be bringing engine up and firing up soon. Drove back up to erie and got some parts for my friends panel, he will be bringing down this week, so its gonna be a full house finishing that up for him and trying to get my truck done this year. crossing fingers
Oh, put about 150 miles on my 51' this weekend, drove it all weekend.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
hey 49' welcome to the board. I don't mind helping out, I get quite a few emails and PM's. I all I ask is to be appreciative and considerate of the info I or others give. I'v had some people seem a little too lazy about what they were doing and that can be frustrating, also a demanding sense of questions I'v had and that gets annoying. But for the most part its all good and I like helping out. I'v learned most of my stuff via the internet, never had anyone around me that was into mechanics or old stuff. Fill us in and make a post so others can follow, I feel its best to keep your questions organized in a thread so it don't clog up other threads, for the most part atleast. Good luck.

Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA
6-27 Got a couple hours in today. Cut 4 boxing plates out with a grinder. think I went through 4 discs doing so. got two welded in, got two more to put in the back. Figure the extra security back there will be nice. I'm also going to plate the stock leaf pearches where my link bars go in. I feel like you can box the frame all you want, but that area there is a weak spot in my opinion. I coated the inside of frame and boxing plate bf I welded these in.
brought my engine up, I gotta put the heads on this weekend. I forgot my lifters so I'll put intake on next weekend, I'll try and get it on the start stand this weekend and start plumbing it up so I can get it fired up. Got a nice polished WP off ebay and it was all messed up via shipping, so hopefully I get that new one soon. Still have a few more things to order up, just a couple odds and ends like dipstick, waterneck etc. Frame will have 1 full coat of chassis saver by the end of this weekend. Still have the bottom to sand down and coat. Then I'll put final coat on next weekend and then I can set the engine in the frame and work on my suspension stuff as I go. All new poly bushing throughout, shock mounts, still have to order up some slotted rotors and some good calipers, etc.
