Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.
Quick up date, I just got back from the blasters and it looks great. Now I can start putting it together for good and not be concerned about rust. Here are a few pics.

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.
I was kinda surprised you left the rocker boxes in place, since they are not needed with the hard top. I'm not sure if it helps or hurts for future rust spots.

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.
Nice progress!!! What was the plan for this one? Bagged? Big wheels? That sucks about your air compressor, hopefully your warranty will cover it. If they don't cover it and its the motor you might be able to have it rebuilt. I have a place local to me that rebuilds ac and dc treadmill motors that I've had real good luck with.

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.
Here is the build thread from the chassie. I think he plans on running 15" rims but that might have changed. http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...project+trazer
Yes it is the comp. motor as that is were the flash of light came from. You can look into it and see a few of the winding leads shorted together for what ever reason. It spun free and so did the pump. I have to wait untill Monday to call. Kevin LFD Inc. Last edited by Rokcrln; 02-25-2008 at 06:51 AM. |

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.
Definitely a 'no short cuts' build.

Re: LFD's Project Traizer 2WD closed cab.
Well the quarters are finished except for the welds around the tailgate, once it is mounted and checked then I will weld that section. I also made up small pieces to conect the newe cab to the blazer B posts in side. This section was cut large so the quarters could slide in to place and the roof section could drop down. So now that all that is done it was time to close up the void. I also finished the inner bed wall to cab conection and it is ready for a quick pass of seam sealer then bed linner will give it all a real clean look. Heading back out to start to finish up the rockers and a few misc welds on the cab. Then later this week I will work on the door bottom patches, seat mounts and it should be ready to set her back on the frame
