I'm gonna give him a call next week, I'm not in a hurry but I would like to be kept informed and replied to a PM or email that I sent. I want to order enough blue vinyl to cover my dash pad and sun visor so that it will all match.

Working on my garage

nds1968 · 08-06-2017, 10:15 AM

I dug out some more caps and hung them up

nds1968 · 08-10-2017, 06:22 PM

I had some Ed Black's decals made...

nds1968 · 08-28-2017, 06:35 PM

Street Machinery repaired all the rust and sprayed some Lizard Skin on the underneath and inside floor.

Bennett68C10 · 08-28-2017, 08:49 PM

Looking good buddy! Did you get your seat covers in yet, mine came in last week! They look good but the wait was ridiculous.

Thanks I asked them for an estimate on painting the interior. No seat covers, yeah Tim should of said something about the wait. I swear he told me 6 weeks but I deleted most of our correspondance. I'm not ready for them so it doesn't bother me to much.

I went through the thread a couple times in case I missed it. What are the tire and wheel sizes? Its an excellent looking combo.

The front are 15"X6" 215/70R15 and the rear are 15"X8" 275/60R15. A few members are running this setup.

Got my covers, they look nicer in person.

Hey, those look familiar

nds1968 · 09-07-2017, 05:28 PM

I picked up the cab from Street Machinery...

They replaced both rockers, both kick panels, patched floor by kick panels, patched firewall and one body mount... Oh yeah the driver side cab corner.

nds1968 · 09-08-2017, 10:35 PM

Some pics

Bennett68C10 · 09-08-2017, 11:04 PM

Looks good!

Thanks Keith, I'm heading to the paint store in the morning. Hope we can get the interior color matched. Didn't think it was gonna be an issue, may have to have PPG take a picture and come up with paint formula.

nds1968 · 09-08-2017, 11:30 PM

The guys who did the rust repair like to leave as much of the original metal as possible. So the patches were small. Then for the rockers, on the D.S so only replaced the top of the rocker and on the P.S. they replaced the side/bottom of the rocker. I've seen others do that here on the forum...

nds1968 · 09-09-2017, 02:05 PM

I picked up some DP50 sealer and the interior paint.

nds1968 · 11-05-2017, 11:57 PM

I set the cab onto the frame for the winter...

nds1968 · 11-30-2017, 06:53 PM

I ordered a top mount rear sway bar from No LImit this week.

nds1968 · 02-23-2019, 09:28 PM

Well I dropped the cab and front clip off at the body shop a week ago. They started to media blast the cab and parts.
