Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Well the driver side is going to need a little more work than the pass side did.
Nothing to bad just a few pin holes just going to take longer than i'd hoped. I almost thought about just geting rid of the fresh air vent all together but I think ill keep it. |

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
So i returned the firwall i was using for patch panels to my buddy last week thinking i would not need anything else but I did that before removing driver side cowl. Now that it looks like i need some more patches so I called my buddy and sure enough he took it to scrap. I guess ill just have to fab my own!

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Got a call from the machine shop today and they told me that my
block was cracked. So between the crank being bad and the block being cracked it might be easier to find another complete core. Funny thing is the motor ran decent before i pulled it I guess you can never tell. |

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Yea it is a lot of work but when I got into it it was easier to replace entire panel instead of only patching a few areas. I think it looks harder then it is.
Not much progress today but I did manage to tack replacement panel in. |

Re: Brave or crazy? crewcab build
Awesome progress! I fear I have a similar situation in the cowl area to tend to once I finish the rolling chassis.
