Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Thanks Guyz…
Had a great Birthday… got a Porterbuilt Tshirt and worked more on some honey-do's so I can focus on truck time… Just thought this was the coolest tshirt idea I've seen in a while... Was unusual to get a light dusting of snow so early in the year, but remember… Global warming, climate change, whatever...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
i lived and worked in buffalo for the blizzard of '77 and the ice storm of '78. seems like i remember 10 feet of snow and 50 below temps. those folks are tough and probably used to the cold lake effects they get... me, i moved south.

March 13, '93 I lived in Montgomery, AL and woke up that morning to 8"of the white frozen stuff… the City and the 2 Air Bases shut down... and other than that I have memories of growing up just south of Chicago and as a boy walking on top of 2 to 3 feet of snow covered in about an inch or so of ice... Woke up this morning to -2 C and supposed to get up to a balmy 11 C… Cheers Mate!!!

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Me too..... Truck time tomorrow, well, sort of. Working on clearing the garage.
Sold my Sachs Madass tonight. Stripped off all the side trim on my truck after work. Looks rubbish. I have sent you some pics of my two quarter light windows by email. I suspect you will agree the passenger side needs replacing.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Here's a pic of the grille support in red primer, gotta get some grey primer on it, then it will be ready for paint...
Started prepping to start the frame swap… Here's the cab moved to it's new home till I get a chance to prime the interior… and the bent frame on jackstands waiting for disassembly...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Good to talk to you Don. Seeing your bits in real time on Facetime still blows my mind.
Thanks for looking out for a passenger side quarter light frame for me. Much appreciated.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
In the 70's the past 2 days, and today we reached a balmy 39, about 7 this morning… When I ventured out to the shed to begin tweaked frame disassembly it was 36 outside and 40 in the shed... …so I broke out the tools and began front end removal… after an hour os so, I had the shocks, sway bar, P/S box removed and the center-link separated from the frame... at this point my fingers were numbing up pretty good... so off to warm up.
that's where I left off today… if all goes well, I will be grabbing my neighbors trailer and finally hauling the rat project home… …til next time...
