Man, That looks great! Keep the pics coming.

mcbassin · 10-27-2011, 12:12 AM

Any new updates? It's been a while

1972hays · 10-27-2011, 12:35 AM

wow i like it

Slick67 · 10-27-2011, 09:05 AM

Love those colors!! Clean and sanitary. This is already one killer truck and can't wait to see the final product! Sorry it's been awhile since I stopped by the thread.

sourkraut · 10-29-2011, 09:25 PM

thanks guys, i have been very busy lately! have gotten some small things done! one cool thing is made a shifter that turned out nice, will get some pics. i am really hoping to get some work done this winter, once i a couple other things finished around the house.

sourkraut · 01-22-2012, 11:15 PM

Well it has been a while! I have been very busy and have allowed some dust to settle on the truck. I have brushed some off and gotten a little done the past few weeks. Started to work on my doors and were going to take some work so i started looking around. Got lucky and found a right and left doors boxes never opened local for $350 for both of them! I was tcickled with the price but they still need work but minor compared to the others. I had to cut out the lower bolt mounts to realign so i could align the bottom of the door right and also made spacers so i can get correct gaps. Hinges are as far back as they cango and it seems like were they bolt to on the door is stamped in to for so the spacers will fix that. The hoop is out of wack but no big deal have it cut just wating till door is in final spot to tack hoop.
Got some other small things done like the shifter bent, powder coated and found a nob with the proper 5 speed numbers but in the retro white ball. Thinking about possibly changing direction on a couple small things but not sure yet. Feels good to be back at her. Dont mind my sons blue paint job.

Newtz67 · 01-23-2012, 12:17 AM

Looking good. Gotta love the wheels.

msgross · 01-29-2012, 10:46 AM

love the knob and doors... thinking of selling my NOS burb door and picking up a clean set of doors...

my passenger side is "nice" but needs coated on the inside.

POPO1984 · 01-29-2012, 02:23 PM

what tire combo are you running

sourkraut · 01-29-2012, 08:52 PM

You cant really see but it says 5 on there too. The doors are nice but man, hadgotten the drivers completed. tacked in place but needs final welding. Pass side will need the same attention. All this work could have had one of the originals done and saved some money. Never goes as planned. What will you use to coat it?
