Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Well let me know if you get stuck on the wiring. I learned a lot through wiring mine! Need to keep it somewhat fresh or I'll start forgetting it all!

![]() I got the window glass and wing windows in today. Great rubber from gmcpauls btw! The windshield rubber I had from LMC was complete crap so the glass man is getting some from precision on Monday. Needless to say the windshield is back out waiting on decent rubbers. |

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Looking good man. You started with better sheet metal than mine has.
Encase I missed it what kind of blaster did you use and what kinda of media? I am wanting to shave my firewall and blast my engine bay and frame this week/weekend so I can have it all painted and ready to go when I drop the motor in. |

We have a home built blaster with a 100lbs. pot. I used a 3/16 nozzle or 1/4 with 120-150 average psi @ 22cfm. To do the entire truck I ended up using about 20 bags I guess. The media not sure of the brand just off hand but it was 80 grit silica mix. The stuff is pretty fine and is black in color. The blaster gives you a great clean surface to start the resto... saved a lot of sanding and cleaning time for sure. ![]() |

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Hey Chris, a little off subject, but where did the bed mat come from? I have been having a hard time finding one for our trucks. The truck is coming out beautiful, keep up the great work!

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Wow, it looked like a rubber mat at first. I'm going to use the Raptor product as well, but will also put a rubber mat on the floor. Just trying to find the mat that will fit. Anyways, keep on keepin on! Truck is looking great.

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
Nothing for the last few weeks... I've been working on a big masonry job that is taking all my time and energy. I hope to get back to the truck in a few more weeks.
I should have some cash and time to throw at it here pretty soon. ![]() |

Re: 72 Not sure what to call it yet resto!
wow, a SWEET truck going together just 45 minutes from me! Can't believe I've missed this build so far. I used to deliver for FedEx around Lake Anna, and I LOVE that area!. Great work so far.
