Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
well guys I did get a lil work done this weekend, before running out of argon! I cut out some of the rust on the back of the cab and replace it! anyways I'll post some before and after pics! I didn't like gap on the bottom of the passenger door looked so that all was fixed when I cut out the cab corner! here's the pics!! first pic doesn't look like much but the gap between the rocker and cab corner was almost a 1/4" inch

glad you're getting a little bit of truck time... and that new stuff you're picking up at work is good experience for when it comes to paint time on the truck.
keep after it bro... little here, little there. |

when it comes time to primer and paint the outside of my truck I'm going to talk to them at work about ordering it for me and have them break it down to payments over 6 paychecks! another guy at work told me they have done it for him in the past, which I think is pretty cool of them!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
well its been months since I updated anything on my thread! NOT TRUCK RELATED!!
I was up for a raise back in Nov. well after two months of working a lot of o.t and buggy them about my raise I got nowhere with them! then found out they had no plans of giving me a raise even though I was doing good, I quit this last Friday 1-9-15! started a new job Wednesday 1-14-15 making $2 more an hr. then previous job (+PLUS) job i'll be working they travel! they do valve repair on water, gas, sewer, steam piping in factories any where in the U.S but mostly the states around Oklahoma! anyways I've been depressed the last few months over my last job, but things always happen for a reason, and just like that things have turned around! I'll have to work 13 days off 1 day work 13 days and so!! Wife said she can deal with the travel thing as long as I'm making more money! truck is going to be put on the back burner for a while or I'll see what I can do on the one day off every two weeks gets me! but I should really be able to buy a lot of parts real soon with 10-14hr days! anyways didn't want everyone thinking I just completely stop working on the truck or fell of the face of the earth! just had a hard time recently

thanks jeff OK so I haven't posted anything in a long time! Still not much to report but buying a lot of stuff with all my overtime money! had a lil scare with my dad, had my mom call said taking him to the hospital, he cant breath and feels like 1,000lbs. on his chest! they kept him for 2 days doing stress test, blood work, x-ray of his lungs, etc! and as they were getting ready to let him go, they tell him he has COPD from smoking 50+yrs.! has a heart of a 20 yr. old but the lung of a 90yr. old and his best bet would be to stop smoking and start his early retirement or ssi that they won't be releasing him back to work! my dad has never gone to the doctor and the wife was really scared from all of it! ok back to the truck stuff: Bought smoke grey side and vent glass from Brothers trucks, they don't sell smoke grey vent glass I had to ask for it! I spent $560 at classic parts buying all the interior stuff: sun visors w/bracket, armrests, window regulators, door glass weatherstripping, complete lock set to have everything keyed the same, AC glove box liner (that I'm only going to use as a template to make a metal glove box liner), and bowtie door sill plates! also bought a driver door from a forum member ( waiting for greyhound to call me to pick it up), bought both bottom inner door patch panels, and when I get a good day off when be dropping my door of with Clemdaddy to get them all fixed up! bought stuff to do the hidden ipod radio, got to buy some Y spitters, ground and power blocks to Y them in! then the speakers and that will be good! got my sons 5th. b-day party tomorrow and will get pics of everything after!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
while I got my tci outlaw shifter and my two 3" borla pro-xs mufflers in today! I'm not sure if the motor I have in my truck will last very much later in my truck as I has been thinking of a carbed 408 ls engine, or a turbo ls engine!! ordered my vhx gauges today they will take 6-10 weeks before they get here!! here are some more pics!!

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
agree with modges... you're getting the good stuff.
give me a call or pm when you can, i'd be glad to help you out with that door. hope dad is feeling better, i also smoked for years, back then it was thought to be cool and not dangerous. now-a-days it's odd how many still smoke even knowing the dangers. tell your dad to put them away for the grandkids and maybe even great grand ones... |

yea, my dad has cut down on the smoking went from 1-1.5 packs a day to just 5 cigs a day! it's a start, the wife got a lil emotional with him and it opened his eyes so I got my 45* degree 3" exhaust and the tips I got were not long enough only 7.5" long so I ordered some that are 18" long did a lil mock up lying it on the floor to find that out! the good thing is, the exhaust tips will not be wasted they will fit are Tahoe and my work truck! still need to buy the exhaust hangers, I'm wanting on the straight pieces, exhaust tips and the header collector flange to be tig welded on to the straight pieces before I can install them for final mock up

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
hey chad,
here's pics of the doors we talked about. I think they're pretty good, no rust, no big dents, not even the tomahawk from a weak door stop... let me know if interested. |

Re: my '64 c-10 swb project with steel floor from a '70
WELL, progress is progress!!
1) I got my driver side cab corner patch done! 2) Got the back of the cab stripped done using 3m stripping wheels, the green around the glass is already been stripped down and self-etching primer was sprayed on! 3) then today I put some body filler on the back of the cab, still got to sand it all down but getting closer!
