Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

I was looking at the small spring one. I was'nt even sure it was a scale. That ones huge. Is that thing sitting on it what your wife uses to press your Sunday best with?

I'll come up for breakfast! Oh and what are those piggys doing? I helped Norm install the 4.11 pumpkin in his rear end. We work well together.

I was wondering what responses I would get posting those piggies.
Yeah Norm is easy to get along with. Wonder why he's not on this forum much.

Sorry about the pig thing! I really opened up a can of worms now! Well the girlfriend would explain his lack of posting up. Because he is otherwise occupied.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

OK Back to business.

I finally got to drop the rear of the cab over the frame so the lines would line up with the bed. The cab was tilting forward too much. I cut where I cut before, but 2 inches more. After I cut a piece of the floor across the back out and cut the sides, I then tied the cab down on the hoist arms. Then jacked up the floor to make it bend up and stay there. Then I filled the pie cuts. I also boxed the bottom, but forgot to take pictures of it. That's what happens when people stop buy to bull $hit.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

Before I took the cab off again, I made some rear cab mounts with the sitting correctly with the bed. Then I took it all off the hoist, and separated all of it. I can still work on the cab. I just have to roll it out on the dollys. But before that I will start on the frame, and install the links, and air bags. I still have plenty of work left on the frame.
At least now I have use of the lift again.



These are the new cab mounts.

At least once a month I wash the floor. A clean shop is an efficient shop.
I also find tools that I lost when I do.

Re: 1965/73 Cheap Build Up

About time you get some work done.

Now I just wish someone would get on mine and tell me to do some work. You know being messed up in the head really does effect what you like to do.

What you doing with all those Intro's I'll take 5 of those. doesn't matter if they match I'll get the same size tire.
