Raptor bed lining was applied about a year ago. No problems so far, but this truck is driven very little.

Right on, I've looked up some threads on this and it seems everyone is divided on it, but I definitely like the look and will probably go for it once it gets a little warmer!

lowslow64 · 02-07-2018, 04:29 PM

Raptor is easy to use. Also did my bed sides with it. Sorry photo looks blue, but its really black.

rvrfoot · 02-07-2018, 04:41 PM

Yep that's blue LOL

Turtleman · 02-09-2018, 12:58 AM

Yeah ?? where you get that Blue Raptor Bed Liner?

jchav62 · 02-12-2018, 11:10 AM

My cousin came over and started some rust repair for me. Floor and rockers are next.

rvrfoot · 02-12-2018, 11:34 AM

Wow, Nice job i am going to look. I need mine rockers done too.

rvrfoot · 02-12-2018, 11:47 AM

Keep the pictures coming.

Re staining the Bed. Previous stain was just
home brew for "aging" the wood
And distress. This stain turned out a bit
too dark....I'll give a few days before I think about
Trying to lighten it a bit.

That's really cool. Is that for functional purposes? What are you planning on putting on there?

DexterDog · 02-12-2018, 02:13 PM

Forgot the second picture for comparison on
Color/age effect.

lowslow64 · 02-16-2018, 01:18 PM

Got my audio battery and Ridetech control box mounted last night.

62chevy302 · 02-17-2018, 08:48 AM

Cut the inner panel out of the 62 today

62chevy302 · 02-17-2018, 08:54 AM

rvrfoot · 02-17-2018, 12:16 PM

What are your plans?

BBW conversion. I think im gonna flatten the panel below the window for increased seat room. I was hoping somebody did this but cant find it anywhere

**allchevy58** · 02-18-2018, 09:02 PM

Last couple months got the engine install done, still trying to get carb. to run right, exhaust with Purple Hornies, way too loud, new brakes, rebuilt wheel cylinders and master cylinder, new wheel adapters 2" spacers for newer dually wheels, mounted new tires, gutted interior, seat is being upholstered right now, installed sound deadner, new fuel sender and tank. Old sender didn't work, pulled out and it looked like a boat anchor at the bottom of the ocean for 20 years, tank was all rusty too with a 1/4" hole rusted through the back about 3/4 the way up. Installed new gas tank neck gasket from Classic Heartbeat.

Digging the Ron Francis reverse relay dome/courtesy light conversion kit for our trucks. Did a quick test last night.

Now that is nice! I need to look into that kit.

lowslow64 · 02-19-2018, 10:25 AM

Got the carpet installed along with Pro Scat seat bracket this past weekend.

Jferrante · 02-19-2018, 01:54 PM

Painted the engine

**f66** · 02-19-2018, 07:11 PM

I bought a 66 C20 that on the good side is very original and rust free. The bad, it had been sitting for many years, not running, bad gas, and every hose that carries fluid dry rotted. I have been slowly working through the process of assessing what can be rebuilt, and getting it on the road. The end goal is a restoration and for me is to have a solid daily driver. Completed a clean and rebuild of the carb.

forestb · 02-19-2018, 07:21 PM

built speaker boxes to replace my kick panel vents.
