77ChevySharkBite · 12-05-2012, 09:51 AM

All I can say is I want to see some pics of this 383 going in the truck, we all know doing all this work aint nothing without pictures, which I know everyone is pretty good about taking pictures, good luck today will the install fellas!

JRANGER · 12-05-2012, 10:57 PM

Just go look or cubbers build thread... We didnt get it put in today but we did get his inline 6 removed, a lot of cleaning done, and then engine is near ready....

I also managed to get home shine a spot light on my truck and remove the trim and do a little sanding on the back of the cab....

I plan to get some sand paper tomorrow for my orbital because hand sanding bondo sucks!! lol

77ChevySharkBite · 12-05-2012, 11:07 PM

Alright got to go check it out, and honestly I think hand sanding sucks even doing it on regular paint an electric sander is waaaay better!! That's awesome you were able to sand the back of the cab, sounds like a nice productive day today!

The day is mixing well with this vodka

haha

JRANGER · 12-06-2012, 07:44 PM

So I went hard to work starting at 7am...I would not let scatter showers detour me no matter what...I made a canopy of sorts for any time it started raining and I went to work....

I cleaned and painted the frame
I sanded, cleaned, and painted the back of the cab and front of the bed with a roller (3 Coats Blitz Black)
and and and I also installed Thrush Glass Packs.... **Only thing that sucked is I ran out of Flux wire...>Then used aluminum i accidentally bought so they had some very small leaks...I put exhaust sealer on it and the leaks seem to be gone...
