Re: Project: 1967 C10 Small Window
thank you very much
thanks it's really nice to hear that from you seeing how clean your work is. Quote:
Got the gas tank installed with new sending unit. I sandblasted the original hardware and painted it silver. Also, there are rubber washers in between the gas tank and the cab for the top five bolts. |

Re: Project: 1967 C10 Small Window
I used a 100 sq.ft. of 80 mil Fatmat Rattle Trap and it just barely allowed me to cover everything once. I probably have less than 2 sq.ft. left... I'll probably get a little bit more later on for the doors and maybe a second layer on the firewall.

Re: Project: 1967 C10 Small Window
Thanks guys!
Alright I decided to redo my rear view mirror bracket. Way back when, Slick67 told me he polished up his original bracket and I loved the look. I don't think you can buy these brackets reproduction and I'm pretty sure they only came for 67 so I really wanted to use it. I filed out all of the extra casting lines and smoothed out the surface using files, sandpaper, and the sandblasting cabinet. Then it was just sanding and sanding topped off with some metal polish to finish it up. What do yall think? |

Re: Project: 1967 C10 Small Window
I really appreciate the kind words guys! I've decided to tackle the steering column/wheel next. I wanted to go with my original wheel but I really think it looks cool in the shape it's in right now so I'd like to preserve it...for now at least. I'm probably gonna go with this Mooneyes 15''
