Made a little progress this past friday.. more rust repair and paint stripping...

Had the night off from work last night. Figured I'd hibernate out in the garage and work on the truck.. made some progress, first 2 shots are before and after

Thanks...
It's been a learning process, I had the basics and I just went for it...

[Andyking1203]

Made some progress today, got the floor/firewall braces in. Cleaned them up with the wire wheel. Also started covering holes up in the fire wall..

[Andyking1203]

Finished up the heater box holes and fan motor hole this morning, also got more of the interior sanded down..(no pics of that, its boring)!!!

Looking good man! Are you going to put a radius piece in on the firewall or leave it as is?

Thanks, I'm gonna smooth out the rest and put a piece that connects the firewall to the inner cowl.. kinda hidden the ugly!!!

Looking good here Andy. Keep up the good work. I was hoping to put a radius piece in that smooths the firewall drip rail/seal rail whatever its called but not sure I am going to have enough time.... I really want to get this truck on the road...

How is the weather been lately? Big storms up your way I hear...

I'm way to far from worrying about "getting it done"!! My plan to to smooth th entire firewall and hide all the wires/hoses as much as possible..

Not to many storms, just bitter cold!!! Kinda kills the drive to work in the garage.. but I will have progress tomorrow!!!

Looking good! You've got the cold too? We have been floating around - 30° C to - 50° C up here all week. Supossed to get back to - 20°C starting next week.

Ya it's been teens here for about a week, I have a heater but it drinks a lot of propane when it's that cold..

[Andyking1203]

Soo made a little progress today.. got most of the holes patched up in the firewall... gonna run all or most of the wires through the drivers side air vent..

[TA_C10]

Curious, are you going to run a bulkhead connector on the side vent or if not what are you gonna clamp everything down with?

Yes that's the plan, or I'll fab up something else to make it work...

[TA_C10]

I'm getting pretty close to purchasing a wiring harness so I will keep an eye out for your decision on wire harness and bulkhead connector choice. I would like to run my wiring through the vent as well.

.

[Andyking1203]

Think I'm gonna do the fuse box in the vent, then run the wires out to the necessary areas from there.. keeping it all hidden

[Andyking1203]

Made a little more progress today, not done yet but yall get the idea..
