Thanks for the offer. I will keep you in mind when I get to that project...

**Cash3481** · 08-17-2014, 10:45 AM

Got all the brackets painted yesterday but had a few pieces that had a compatibility issues with paint (or I had something on them). Either way here's an updated pic. More to come tonight I hope.

When I saw those yesterday they looked like NOS stuff... great job Mike....

**thelonerife** · 08-17-2014, 03:41 PM

Nice progress!

gdavis · 08-17-2014, 11:04 PM

They all look good from here. Even if they don't, don't let that worry you. You are the only person, who needs to be satisfied anyway.

Amen to that. The garage is getting cleaner and the trucks are looking better. I guess I gotta keep going.

Thanks to all for comments and support!

Here's the next addition to the hoard.
It will be a parts truck. Ps, pb, ac, custom.
Untouched except the squirrels as caretakers while parked in a field.
Thought I'd share!

Lol,
I wondered what your pm was about.
I was just showing this truck to share.
If I part it in the next few weeks it will be in the parts board.
My sharing on the build thread is like an editorial From Andy Rooney...
You get "The Rest of the Story"!

Cash, You going to be able to pull yourself away from the trucks to swing up to Wichita for Blacktop nationals this weekend?
I know Chris Carlson Hot Rods ( use to was Chaotic customs) will have a display inside Century II. I might have to swing in there and chat with him about "Class act"

I should have time. Might be a chance to take a break.

**Cash3481** · 08-25-2014, 04:21 PM

Well my awesome time management skills at work allowed me to finish this cluster for the orange truck! Lol
I liked the more red look of the indicators than the more correct orange color.
Seeing how the truck is orange I should maybe use it on the BB primered/Green truck.
Either way, Enjoy the pic!

Elliot949 · 08-25-2014, 04:24 PM

Looks good buddy...

96Indyram · 08-25-2014, 04:37 PM

Very Nice!

**Cash3481** · 09-01-2014, 11:53 PM

Worked on the AC housings today. Cleaned and cleared the housings. Then wire wheeled the lines to make them look original/new but not polished and stainless. I think the look is gonna go well with the new cast intake to match the satin look. If it doesn't match... I'll polish them. Enjoy the pics!

**Cash3481** · 09-02-2014, 12:01 AM

Pic of the lines

**Cash3481** · 09-11-2014, 10:47 PM

Well, it's together now. I have a friend that has the correct black sealer that goes on the housing where the lines come out. I'm getting it from him tomorrow.
Enjoy the pics... More to come!

**Cash3481** · 09-11-2014, 10:56 PM

I also got a load of stuff back from the blaster today.
This place is amazing... Here is what I got done for $50!
SWB steel floor
Wheel tubs
3- 15x8 1/4 8lug rims
2-- 15x8 5 lug rims
1. A/C dash
Brake and fuel lines
They were dropped off yesterday and picked up on my way home today!
Here's a pic of the wheels.
*just noticed the wheel weights were still on the rim. Lol I was so happy I didn't notice it.

TTT for you, Mike. I am about to install Factory A/C in my avatar truck which never had a/c. Could you share your secret sealer info with us?

When you say "barn" what do you mean exactly, a shop style metal building?

Im currently waiting for a company tearing down a building on base (where I work) to sell me a truckload of 10"X10"X25' laminated timbers. The date for demo has been moved 12 months already so there is nothing I can do about that. The building is 320'X850', all wood framed and even the perlins are wood (5' tall at that)! The vertical supports across the width are 13"X13"X25'. For the price im getting them for I want to frame the building with these and will order custom trusses.
Building will be approx. 40'X80'X16' with a 20' overhang on the end with heated floors throughout the bldg. I need it to house my camper, boat and an outdoor kitchen, inside bathroom and family room and of course some space for my trucks.
It would have to have 5 doors on the front and 2 on the rear for driving the camper and boat through to drop em off after use.
I have a quote for a metal building but I didnt like the cost for the view I want to match the house. I cant afford a BigDaddyO "Barnasaursus" so I gotta find a way to save some money on it.
Heres a pic of the overlay I made of the lights I want. It will give you an idea of what I want for a layout and a picture of my house. Its new so please excuse the front yard work.

Xeen · 09-12-2014, 10:16 AM

Woah that thing is gonna be huge.

Id like to think its appropriate for the space! LOL
I refuse to scale anymore to save on cost.
Just need to save and figure out how to get it done.
Its going to happen I was hoping it would happen before winter but thats out of the question for this year, maybe spring. That gives me more time to save too.

Xeen · 09-12-2014, 11:11 AM

One thing is for sure you won't have a lack of space for toys.

Elliot949 · 09-12-2014, 03:52 PM

Great size Mike for the property...
