i know right i love those vavle covers

nds1968 · 01-17-2011, 06:55 PM

Are you practicing on those caps

Are you gonna use that tailgate with the dent in the top?

67chevy1series · 01-17-2011, 08:27 PM

actually no those caps will stay painted red and black ,then your caps will be left alone he only thing i will do is paint the back side white on the one with the surface rusta and after that they will be waxed and kept clean

yes i will be using the tailgate with the dent on the top , i got that tail gate of of the same truck that i got my cab from i have a 68 tail gate that will give a chunk of its life to make this one perfect!

67chevy1series · 01-17-2011, 08:29 PM

well today i cleaned up the floor under the seat and in front of the seat it was filthy

but now it is all clean and i gave the tires and rims a good scrubbin so no major porgress today but i did find more screw to screw the heater box on the inside to the fire wall so now all i need is the outside box and i should be set

nds1968 · 01-17-2011, 08:46 PM

I had a similar dent like that on my original tailgate. I welded a piece of flat stock to it then pulled up on it with a crane. I then used a BFH and still had to add heat to get the dent out. I turned out nice in the end

67chevy1series · 01-17-2011, 08:48 PM

nate that is definaltly somthin to

about

i need pics

nds1968 · 01-17-2011, 08:56 PM

I don't have any pics

My tailgate wasn't as bad as yours, I'm just throwing some ideas your way. If you don't have a 10,000lbs over head crane handy

maybe you could use an engine hoist or chain block.

67chevy1series · 01-17-2011, 08:57 PM

oh no crane handy so i guess i will just cut it out then

nds1968 · 01-17-2011, 09:00 PM

I would try to straighten it before cutting it out. Like I said maybe you could use an engine hoist or something. You could also weld a piece of chain to the top of the dent and pull on that.

67chevy1series · 01-17-2011, 09:04 PM

i will try that

I would try the engine hoist too, if it works it'll be a lot easier then cutting that piece out.

67chevy1series · 01-17-2011, 10:47 PM

yes it will so when the time comes i will do it

67chevy1series · 01-18-2011, 12:16 AM

grab all ur buddies, the bigger the better and have them stand on the hoist so it doesnt just start lifting itself off the ground when you start raising the boom on it
