Re: What did you do with your truck today, take 2
Cut out some rust I found in the lower front fender. Was blocking and saw a couple of blisters, further investigation with the dremel showed more. Will weld in a patch and continue.

Re: What did you do with your truck today, take 2
Weather was good. Had to run to the hardware store so took the truck. Backed out of the parking spot and she stuck in reverse. No forward gears. Think the shifter is stuck. Called the wife for a tow home. Will deal with it later

Re: What did you do with your truck today, take 2
Bought a '49 3100. Really nice 350 motor and for the most part redone with an older frame off restoration. Truck died on its maiden voyage 10 miles away in the middle of nowhere, looked under and sure enough the battery ground connection bottomed out and no battery power anywhere. Flatbed home and up into the air she goes and there is no possible way to get to that battery from under the truck. My dad remembered an access hole under the passenger side these trucks had so I had to take apart the brandy new interior and sure enough there it is. Someone had soldered the main power wire to the battery post...
Anyway all fixed and I'm driving the heck out of this truck and I love it. |

Re: What did you do with your truck today, take 2
I haven't put it back on yet. Too cold to pull it outside. 6 degrees!! If it warms up a little in the next couple weeks, I'll put it on and post a pic.

Re: What did you do with your truck today, take 2
Sat. I removed my windshield ,I expected the worst, weather stripping was all cracked in the lower corners and rock hard.
I was surprised to only find one bad spot in the upper pass. side corner , about 1" x 1/4" hole along the lip. looked like it was caused by a mouse nest up in the corner. The rest of the lip around the windshield looked new no surface rust whatsoever. I made a little patch for it but wasn't able to weld it in due to being a little to windy for my liking. Scored a nice used windshield off CL, last night. The guy was asking $100, he also had a pair of door he was asking $350 for the pair, both needed the bottoms repaired, got all for $250 pkg. deal couldn't pass it up.  My windshield was marginal, had a 4" crack, and about 5 chips. My doors are ok but the drivers looked like it had been sprung open and someone had tried to straighten the edge with a pair of vice grips. Hope the wind will be calm and cooperate this weekend , I'm at the mercy of the weather out in the driveway .

Re: What did you do with your truck today, take 2
Went over to the body shop today that I had taken my cab to for the rust repair and removed it from that shop to save it from the hack job they were starting to perform on it. Can't tell you how upset I was with the work they had started. Took the cab outta there and is now in another shop closer to my house that I should have went to in the first place. They know what is needed to be done and at least I'm close enough that I can check on their work at any time.
