Re: 1969 Short Wide
I am pretty sure that paint added some horsepower to that ride!!! Holy buckets that thing looks great.....How much longer do you think until it is all painted and assembled?

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Thanks Steve.
Thanks Keith Thanks Kyle, man I could sure use your paint booth. Had a lil trouble with the Imron clear. Just too foggy on the clear coat to see effectively. Now I have some runners to take care of. Quote:
Thanks. Quote:
Thanks Mark. I'm going to focus on finishing up the bed assembly. Not too sure I can put it together solo without scratching or damaging something? Also have a few runs I have to sand out of the clear first. Maybe this week though. |

Thanks. It is good to see some red paint. I was getting sick of sanding on these panels. It gets pretty old after a while. |

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Here ya go Rob, I hope this helps. Like I said, I have an older model Sure Fit unit but I'm going to make it work. The main reason I made the brackets the whole unit kinda sagged from the weight when I shifted it forward towards the firewall.

Re: 1969 Short Wide
I made a new cover for my Vintage Air connection today. It's just raw machined now but it will be polished when finished. I used the original rubber grommets that came with it. I'm hoping the A/C hoses will mount up then I'll be able to put the bolts in from the inside. Just didn't care for the plastic cover and the fittings didn't hit quite right.

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Mike, when I read your posts two words jump out at me - "I made"
There are so many things you put time and effort into that most people will never see, yet you keep on doing it. That's what separates you from the pack and why your project is so freaking cool. There's so much there. Keep it going, can't wait to see more.

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Nice piece! I miss being able to just turn stuff out like that. Looks a lot nicer than the plastic piece.

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Thanks Kyle. and thanks for the help today.
Thanks. Nothing better than access to cool machining centers and cad/cam software. Only limit is imagination and time. |

Re: 1969 Short Wide
Man, the machined piece is over the top. I'd love to have even a drill press in my shop let alone the gear you've got. The paint is soooo sweet too!!! Nice job McB!
