Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
I think it used to be in Colo. Springs, but they moved it up to Loveland a couple years ago. I don't get why they did...??

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
Well, I started working on it again last night...no pics though. I finally was able to get it to the shop. Fred fixed the rust on the inner fenders, so I got those put in a painted the firewall. I will be going back to the shop this evening to do some more work. I have the camera in the truck, so I'll snap some pics and post them tomorrow.
I picked up some new chrome engine pulleys and alt. bracket today, those will go on tonight, the radiator is also ready to go fresh out of the radiator shop. I hope to have it running by the end of the week. ![]()

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
Yes, the rust is was on the front tips of the inner fenders. Fred works magic with metal. He used a donor set to "make" his own patches. He cuts out the rusty area and pieces it back together with pieces cut out of another. Comes out pretty nice...

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
Then, after I backed the trailer into my 'assigned' work area at the shop, I bolted on the inner fenders freshly patched by Fred... I have no detailed shots of the patched area at this time, but I'll post some later...

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
Then after a quick 'scuff and shoot' of the inner panel of the radiator support, we bolted that in...and did a little touching up...

Re: Progress on my woman's '65 Short/Fleet.
Dang Joe.
Ask and you shall receive on your build thread. ![]() Ask for an update and you delivered. ![]() Truck is looking sharp. Love that color. You had me worried parked so close to what looked like a good drop off in the first couple of pictures. ![]()
