Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Finished block sanding the bed round 2. Sprayed more primer for block sanding round 3...or is it round 3 and round 4. I hate sanding and I am so confused!!!!! Am I where I think I am in the block sanding steps or has sanding made me crazy? I may have been priming and sanding for months...OH CRAP! I have been priming and sanding for months! Wawawawawawawawawawa...!!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Finally got to see it almost completely blown apart at the bodyshop today. Now the fun begins ,watching them replace the rusty panels and make it new in my design. I never dreamed I would be doing a frame off on my daily driver and as you can probably tell Im very excited.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Fixed the door jam switch, dome light works. Took it to about 5 inspection places to get the sticker. Finally got it done for the right price 14.50. Most places would not let it pass because its to loud.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I bought some real nice back up light lenses from VA72C10 and went to put them on only to find the PO had put it back together without bulbs or wiring for back up lights. ordered a rear harness and housing cups and bulbs from Ecklers to put it together with. When I started diagnosing it I saw the rear harness had beed buggerred up pretty good.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Worked on getting the wiring fixed. Got the head lights to work, but I will have to order a new light switch to get it all working right.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Al, I did cry a little..... As far as damage, fender, inner fender, battery tray, radiator support, hood, inner grill, outer grill, headlight pieces etc. And alot of panel alignment. Think it's still straight, but guess time will tell. Meeting with adjuster tomorrow.
