Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Been avoiding this part like the plague....wiring....boy do I hate wiring...
I went with the American autowire 15 circuit kit....while I'm waiting on warmer weather I thought I'd start looking into this and see what all is gonna be involved....so I laid out the kit packages to see what's what.. After reading what nsb brought up about extra parts you have to buy, I thought I'd better look... Looks like I'll be needing grommets for sure... It looks to be a solid kit... I think I've seen enough for now.. One page says start..one page says stop...im going with stop for now....Haha

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Thanks Scott....ill look into his stuff....
this kit has a set of instructions for each circuit in the each individual bag.....I opened a few and quick read em....its reads fairly simple, but it still doesn't make me like wiring....

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
HOLY COW..,!! WOW..,!! IM SPEECHLESS....Well almost...
If anybody kept up with this build so far you remember at the start I was trying to straighten a VERY bent up bumper...I did manage to impress even myself with how straight I got it...never did think itd be good enough to use....then I got in contact with elpaso plating..http://www.electroplatingelpaso.com/english/about-us After we talked he said he could straighten and chrome it...I was somewhat sceptical as you can imagine...but I took a chance....well..it came back today.. And I'm still in awe... Enough typing ...here it. Is Couple before pic and then after.. I'll try getting some better pics tomorrow

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Both pieces look great! Glad you were pleased. Guess it makes up for the trials with the mirrors.

When you’re aggravated over your primer you can think about how nice your bumper for came out

Re: Columbus..the 1957 IH 4x4..
Well I did a small side job to help me eliminate some aggregation..In the past ive been wrestling all my parts around on sawhorses to spray primer/paint....I finally got tired of that so I decided to build me some stands to hold parts while spraying..built them outta 1in sq tube..made the center leg hinged so they'll fold up for storage...made some adj stand offs on the lower legs..fixed those so I can use dowels inside the pipe or PVC over the pipe to hold parts out away from the legs....you can see the PVC over the standoffs...and itll be easy to modify them for whatever the need...i went ahead and built 4 of these...I'll make a few more brackets as needed to hold what ever I'm doing..I think this'll work way much better than sawhorses...
