Re: My 76

I didnt do much today. I went to my aunts house with some friends and went swimming. But I did manage to get one fender put on. Its not aligned or bolted down, but its on. I also got the core support painted.



Some good cheap stuff lol, I dont have a job so I got to use some of the cheaper paints on stuff that aint seen.



I started cleaning the fender that aint painted.







Hope you all enjoy

I also started cleaning the bottom of the hood, gonna try to get that all on tomorrow. I also started doing some of the electrical stuff today, got my headlights and turn signals to work again.





Im not gonna run inner fenders right now, gonna lower the truck till I like it then I will build some custom ones.

Re: My 76

ROB84, my truck came like that. It never had AC, just a heater.

After a not so good weekend, I got some progress made. Tell me what you think.

Re: My 76

well can you put it together so its driveable? Then paint/work on it as you get the interest? Your doing great work it looks about finished, just a lil more work. Hang in there I think you will be happy when you get it done!

Re: My 76

Well, I need every seal possible that you can put in a door and windshield, so thats around $200, plus I need a windshield so thats $100, then I need more primer and thats $80. And I have no job, and even if I found a job, I would have no way of getting there. So that is why I am loosing motivation.

Re: My 76

There has been a new plan for the truck. Im gonna get the cab done, primered, all new seals. Throw the truck back together, get a job, and then finish the truck. The bed of this truck is to far gone for me to want to try to save it, especially when I want a step-side for it anyway. So I will get it driveable then save up for a step-side bed for it.

Re: My 76

a step side?!?!?!?

Probably a good idea. Get it back together and driveable. Then tackle it in small portions. But a step side?!! Are you ok man? lol
