[Getter-Done]

A little more progress.
The Person that normally does my sand blasting is Booked Up.
So that leaves it to ( You know who)









It was close to sunset on the next 2 Pictures.

Better than No Pics???

[Getter-Done]

My Hired help seems to be on Vaca-tion







Here is a picture of under the dash after sandblasting and primer.

[Getter-Done]

Quick update.
I got the cab divided.


I will post more pictures.








.

[Getter-Done]

Couple more pics.










.

[Getter-Done]

Got the front part of the (top)roof skin removed.
I was a little rusty at the seam.














.

[Getter-Done]

There was (mouse nest) insulation all across the front on the roof seam.
At first I though mice?
It was neatly placed all the way across the front channel.
So this is what the factory done to hold the cab light wire in place and protect it.
Because some of it was still bonded to the wiring harness.

Driver's side sunvisor reinforcement plate
and hole for routing cab light harness.


Pass. side sunvisor reinforcement is there
so A visor could be added.
Because this truck didn't come out with one.
This is the last terminal on the cab light harness.


Here's a picture of the Insulation
from pass side view.

[Getter-Done]

I have got a little more done.
I will catch up with my pictures & progress.

I am cleaning up from when I cut the roof off.

I am removing the excess piece by piece to
keep my back panel in the best condition.

.
I used a grinder and a
home made chisel
and took my time to remove
the spot welds of the excess
of where I cut the roof panel out.

Thanks

My next step is a (Frame) jig for the floor-pans.
I need to drill holes in that frame then level it.

Are you meaning make a jig to put your body mounts on the frame?

I am in the process of making a Platform for the cab.
When I complete it I will take Pictures.
This platform is to build the cab.
I am making this platform using 8" I beam for my base.
I will have stands for the different measurements with
the floor-pan braces that it will take to make the
differences in the mounting points in my Floor-pan.
This is how I will transfer the floor-pan to my frame
and cab mount locations.










.

[Getter-Done]

Small update.
My helping hand is getting a little sassy.


Got some work done on the platform.
This is the frame I will build my cab on.



I leveled and welded the 2 I-Beams.
Check Both I-Beams for square in X & Y & Z.

That’s one hell of a platform! I like it. You could also use it to do any frame work needed.

Progress report.
After All the Holiday party's
I am Glad to spend time with the family
I just wish they liked Trucks like I do.



I cut Circle's out of a sheet of steel
I welded those to the top and bottom of a piece of pipe
to make some stands for leveling the floor pan.



I didn't take a Picture of the pipe before I started cutting

This pipe that I used was the pipe that was my basketball pole
when I was young.
Yea I saved it that long.



I turned these on the lathe.
Then put them on the mill to get them close to size.

I then had them Precision ground
to the (height) +/- frame mounts / jig frame.
These are the test fixtures.

These will be used on my platform.












.

[Getter-Done]

Then the Next step is the
Solid stands I have machined in the 3rd and 4th picture.
I will get the floor-pans leveled with the pipe stands
in the 1st and 2nd picture below.
Then I will know the Difference between the
front and Rear stand measurements.





These (solid) stands in the pictures below
are on stand -By for now

Once I get the floor-pans level.
I will know the measurement to grind these stands
in the pictures below.
