I second that! It usually gets cold here, but these 15* highs and below 0 lows are really cramping my ambition!

Man thats cold our lowest low has only been *22 and thats is unsually cold for us

mjensen · 01-14-2013, 10:39 PM

Yeah it's way too cold for me...I think I need to move to AZ...of course, then I would probably complain that it's too hot.

Well, keep up the good work so that those of us stuck in this cold crap have something to follow

**frostbyte** · 01-14-2013, 11:36 PM

I like what your doing. Keep up the good work. It makes we want to build one.

oilyrag80 · 01-19-2013, 09:56 PM

I decided to take a brake from welding this weekend and finish
taking this thing apart. I want to get engine and trans out by the end of the
weekend. I also had some little helpers today!

gdavis · 01-20-2013, 04:19 PM

cute helpers you have there.

oilyrag80 · 01-20-2013, 08:00 PM

I got motor and trans out today also tore motor down for rebuild looked good
inside. Its a 350 that has never been rebuilt all standard sizes.
Also a little bonus its a 4 bolt main. I forgot how messy it is when you tear
down a motor oil and antifreeze everywhere!

oilyrag80 · 01-20-2013, 08:06 PM

See trucks do rust in AZ its amazing how much damage a few leaves can do.
Do they repop this section of the cowl?

bodydropped68 · 01-21-2013, 10:25 AM

looking good keep up the great work.

Go the the Parts forum and check with TKorinek or TeeItUp and see if they will cut off just the patches you need.

They do make that part but it appears to be pricy. I wish they made that one when I was redoing mine.

I know I have seen these in other places than LMC.

The crew is looking great!

The cowl is a little cheaper through GMC Pauls.

gdavis · 01-22-2013, 04:56 PM

But you got to look at the shipping. It will eat you up.

Great work on the roof, sucks to see on the cowl. Nice score on the 4 bolt main! It's really taking shape real nice! Keep at it!

Thanks the roof really is the bulk of the work and its kicked my butt!
Yea the 4 bolt is nice to see but i took my standard crank down to the machine shop and they said the "thrust "was out of it and needs welded
and it was probly cheaper to find another crank. He has some core cranks he can turn for an extra 50 bucks. Not sure what Im going to do yet.

**67cheby** · 01-23-2013, 10:46 AM

wow, i had no idea you could buy that piece !

oilyrag80 · 01-23-2013, 09:05 PM

Check what i picked up today this should fix my problem,
Its going to be more work than the repop part but alot cheaper.
I dug it out of my buddys scrap trailer he said just cut out what I need
and bring back the left overs

Rusbuilt · 01-23-2013, 09:28 PM

Sweet bro! I don't see any rust in that one!
