Took a couple of days off to start building the cab up…

High hump covered and ready to bolt down

Install the parking brake mechanism

Installed the new brake switch .. this will allow the TCC to work..

Started on the wiring next.

Installed the dash pad – Man the dust really stands out on the black with the camera flash.

Installed ignition switch..

Tomorrow I will continue…

I did powdercoat on all my chassis parts, axles, springs, brake backing plates, etc. There is no paint that will stand up to the elements for very long.

A shop here in Escondido, CA, did every single chassis part, as well as hood hinges, radiator support, inner wheel wells, and many other small parts for $800 in a gloss black. Nothing can hurt that stuff. Worth the investment.

Keep those pics coming, I'm interested to see everything you do to that machine!

Thanks.. Hopefully in a few months my shop will look a lot different. Wow that sounds like a great deal on that much powder coating.. Good luck on your build..

Steve,

Those are my over engineered floor mounts for installing late model seats in the truck. The seat belts are integrated into the seat.. I did not want to have them pull loose in an accident. I also need a inch of lift in the rear of the seat.

Wow! you are plowing through the interior build up. Looks great Mark!
Nice work on all the paint too Screamin!

AC install today…

Doesn’t look like much.. but it took most of the day..

Zoomin · 12-08-2012, 10:42 PM

Oh, I assure you - I can appreciate how much you've done. That's probably at least a six pack worth.

Crash_OK · 12-09-2012, 11:18 PM

AC vents installed

Rear speakers installed and wired..

I taped all the wires down in preparation of installing he carpet someday.. lol

Radio works and sounds real good..

Got the grove box and cover installed..

Gauges installed

Wired for the power seats.
