Since I have lots of good parts to sell I should easily make my money back. Thanks, your right about the pride, once I'm done I'll be able to tell everyone that I built it from the ground up. Truly built not bought.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Been spending most of my time lately taking the 78 apart and selling things from it but today I started to tear the suspension apart and clean it up. I got the caliper, rotor and spindle off on one side. Breaking the balljoints loose was quite a struggle but a pickle fork and gear puller used together got the job done. I then cleaned the spindle in the parts cleaner and got it looking pretty with a coat of paint .

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Pulled the rear end out today after school. I was on a bit of a time crunch as the truck is getting picked up tommorow but i got it done. The guy that is buying it is giving me more than I paid for it so that means I got all my parts free

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Did you take the master cylinder from the 78 and use it on the 62?
I just picked up a 62 parts truck today to use on my 63 build. |

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Sold the 78 today, got $300 (what I paid for it) plus 160 for some other parts I sold earlier. So free parts and money seems alright to me

Could you please weigh that for me, and get me the dimensions, outside length and width. So that I can figure if one would fit in the mail.

Man wished you lived closer I spotted some parts on the 78 I could've used. Oh well. Great progress.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Maybe one day I can head that way. I'm always hunting around here to see what pops up. Thanks.
