Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Purchased a set of Dog dish hub caps off this site. I have been looking for a set for some time for the right $$$ scored today!!! (Watched it rain and tore apart a #37 Ford front end for Hot Rod project)

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

I drove my truck for the last time before disassembly today (it was a special time...sigh). My friend came by with his son to help disassemble my truck, so, my friend and his son and myself and my son pulled the front sheet metal, pulled the motor/trans and pressure washed the front suspension and frame.

Nice work TRKFRK! I put the 4th coat of urethane on my bed wood after running the heater in the garage for two hours. Got a little twisted between the propane and the urethane :>)))))))

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Today I removed the bench seat, fender wells, fenders and doors. I was also able to get the gas tank and sending until installed and almost finished painting the back half of the frame.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Fired her up today. Right around 50 degrees today in Colorado. Doesn't look like a white Christmas this year. Drove it up and down the street a few times to charge the battery. Put the final coat on the bed wood. I will begin assembly the day after tomorrow(the wife may seize up if I spend the the day in the garage)

Put the windshield washer bottle holder and bottle on the fender wall. listened to a vacuum leak at idle and thought about tracking it down.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

First sunny day around here for the last ten days.

So, while "The Boss" was in the kitchen putting together a serious Christmas Eve spread, I went over to the shop for about four hours. I finished the gas tank vent lines (almost), installed the dash pad...still need to tweek it a little....put in glove box door bumpers (I used an earlier- '60's glove box emblem to piss some "proper" folks off, but mostly to cover one of my paint boo-boos), hand-set the defrost vents, installed the Vintage Air center vent (I'd already cut the hole), used some sound deadener material to block off the old radio grill because you could see thru the front window to the inside of the dash. I figured that at night, with any lights on in the dash, it would look really funky without blocking it off. Polished out the inside sill of the driver's door. Found some dents that I'm just going to live with this go-round (Rat Rod, you know).

When I got home, I took the final shot in the driveway. I thought I was outta doe!!!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Finally got the bed wood put in and bolted together. It is never as easy as you expect! I am pretty excited that it turned out as good as it did. Not perfect by any means but good enough for my rat rod (for now) look.
