any pics

**67cheby** · 10-14-2010, 06:28 PM

tomorrow, he hasnt told me what he has been working on so i dont know what the pics will be of, the shop is about 30mins away from me and closed by the time i get off at night , so i cant just drop by, tonight he is letting me come and do a little paint stripping......we will see how it goes, i need to strip the outside of the doors , hood, top of the cab

**67cheby** · 10-15-2010, 09:24 AM

well here is the progress... the body shop has been fitting the doors, drivers door fits very nice (good gaps) had to cut the pass and drivers side "GM ROCKERS" and lean them out some to make them match up with the doors nice. The big problem is the back of the pass door , going to have to slice all the way up the cab corner and bring it in , the gap is terrible "it may have sprung or something when we put in the cab corners ,rockers, floor patches, that has been about 3 years ago. when i got there last night i was just the grunt man i sanded down the cab corners and roof to bare metal... anyway heres the pics

**67cheby** · 10-15-2010, 09:26 AM

**superflysteiny** · 10-19-2010, 11:08 AM

Looks great I am having some of the same issues with the 66. Itr sucks but I think its just part of it. Keep up the good work

**67cheby** · 10-19-2010, 11:14 AM

Thanks, if you want it to be right, it takes a lot of time oh and money....which i have neither of the afore mentioned items .......LOL, it just stinks to have to rework something that you thought was done

**superflysteiny** · 10-19-2010, 01:03 PM

I feel your pain. 2 steps forward 3 steps back. I have the same issues. Buisness sucks everywere thanks to our president. But we wont go there on the board. Work more pay more taxes.

**67cheby** · 10-19-2010, 01:06 PM

**superflysteiny** · 10-19-2010, 01:11 PM

On a lighter note you are doing a great job on the truck

**67cheby** · 10-19-2010, 01:28 PM

thanks greatly appreciated from a builder of your caliber.... my biggest problem is i have " Crown special reserve taste on a Keystone light budget " i want to build a truck worthy of rolling with the big dogs..... but oh well some day i can add the Billet wheels and big motor !!

jasonhall · 10-19-2010, 01:37 PM
