Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
You did real good with your purchase, most of the time the wood floors are shot in these trucks.

I posted on page 178. Today I hugged my truck because it is officially mine! I also removed the box, let the work begin.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Rattle canned some more fautina. Few more panels to complete bodywork. Sanded rust off the vent windows. Got all the bolts in my reclaimed wood bed.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
This has given me some inspiration, I have thought of using rustoleum brand rattle cans, about how many did it take for you to cover your truck?

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Picked up the driver's side outer fender from the painter. The other fender still needs a bit of work though. Soon, she should be ready for reassembly!

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Yesterday I replaced my broken vent window. Today I refurbished my door panels. They will need replacing in the future but they look pretty ok for now. Also treated them both with rust inhibitor paint. I didn't get to the dash replacement this weekend, and I have to go out of town tomorrow, so that'll have to wait till next weekend.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I was thinking about an orbital sander with a scotch brite pad on it first, then sanding as needed to remove runs. I don't have time to remove panels either, but, I'm going to try it anyway! I'm thinking of tackling the bed first - will have to order some hardware for replacing the ones I'm sure I'll have to grind away!

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I started my build I guess you could say. I got down under my truck and removed the driveshaft, hanger, the exhaust, radiator and supports and got it ready to remove the motor and transmission. I will be degreasing it all underneath and cleaning it up for the new motor which I will bolt onto the transmission after I clean it up and add new seals, filter, and gasket. I am also dropping off the radiator to be flushed and pressure tested. I was surprised to see it full and still bright green after all these years sitting. Since 96 or a few years before.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Got busy and welded up the old mirror holes today in prep for my new sport mirrors. It was a quicky job, weld, grind, spot prime, and rattle can some color and we're good to go.
