Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Love the hood! Looks awesome. Kinda jealous, I would like to have one for my rig, really dig the look. I have a hood and it works, so got to direct the funds to getting her running hahaha.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Been working on putting my engine back together and cleaned and painted up the distributor and vacuum advance, it used to have a 1/4" of dirt and grease covering it.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
While I have the core support and engine out I figured it was the best time to fix the rust in the other inner fender. The drivers side I did allready almost a year ago. So here's what I'm dealing with

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
And here's the finished product, needs just a skim of filler and then I'm ready to paint
 , progress may slow down for the next month as I am going to be now working full time  but at least I'll be getting lots more money to put into the truck $$$!

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
Yep, now you'll know how it feels to put in 40 hour weeks. Plus Saturdays sometimes. lol But, I've found motivation in working a little each night. Gets me a bit closer. Looking good bud.

Re: A 15 year old's project. Rusty 62 stepside
And then I picked up this cool old spotlight from the late 40's that someone has already switched the bulb out to 12volt and it works great and Chrome is in pretty nice shape as well, best of all it only cost me $20
