Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
We also welded and smoothed the upper fender to cab seams...continuing our effort to make the cab and front clip one piece.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Tonight we rounded off the mid front corner of both doors. I saw this on at least one build in here and thought it flowed nicely...so we thought we'd give it a try. We'll shape it a bit better once we spend some more time on lining up the doors...close for now though.

 On that note, we started on the hood...this time using both paint strippers and sanding. It might have been easier to have these media blasted somewhere, but right now we have more time than money...so it's time we're spending!

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Also pulled the light buckets to start fitting in the halo HIDs...heavy undercoating way back when kept these parts in pristine condition.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Nice work! Pre sandblasting those buckets, they kind of looked questionable huh?
 They look perfect after though.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Pulled the cab for the last time hopefully...still have alot of work left on it though. Took advantage of the opportunity to pull the chassis out and wash a bit of the dust off before moving the batteries down to the frame...also bolted a few things on to check fit before sending the steps out for powdercoating.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Just busy making up the bracket to move my 66's battery from the engine bay to under the cab.
Yours looks 100 times more slick though.

Re: 1958 Apache 38 Dually Dump Project
Nice detail on the mud flaps. Carrying the theme on in a tasteful way.
Good idea on getting a quality steering column. Your truck is so awesome. |
