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.

After a cleaning and oiling one of the hood hinges, a few adjustments were made and the hood closes 'cherry'....
