I love that dash. You've got some really great ideas. I'm enjoying your build.

Epoxy Primer, Red Oxide Primer (tremclad bomb), Flat Black (PPG Delfleet), Flat White (PPG Delfleet), Gloss White in the door jams, firewall, and inside of fenders.


Sikkens OTO Bodycoat rockerguard to help keep the rockers from the kids and everyone else getting in and out

Oh yeah, it looks awesome man!!!!!!!!!! Great job!

...and finally looks like I have accomplished something for a change. Now things should move forward a bit faster (I hope).

Looking good always nice seeing more parts going on than coming off. I was up in your area back in the mid 70's hauling Allis Chalmers tractors I took them up to Dauphin and Swan River, beautiful country up there

Thanks, yeah you would have had to come right through here I would guess if that is where you were headed. I have family up in Swan River, and used to travel to Dauphin all the time where I used to work years back as well.

Looks good. I have been thinking about a fux-tina paint job on my stepside. It is in need of paint due to the po's lack of prep work.

Thanks to Brian Fiddler "FID"...we started on the custom dash paint the other night. Got some silver leaf put down, then cleared. And roughed out the objects to be painted (below).








First color of stripping complete (dark brown), and the center picture near completed. Thought that this would go with the whold shop truck theme I was going for. Still 2 more colors to go on in a few days when he gets a chance to get back to the shop again. Next the glass will be going back in once paint is done on the top portion.



Got the doors in place (what a PITA!) Drivers side fought me the whole way. Took nearly 6 hours to get them to fit correectly. Passenger side only took a few hours at best. Still have to do some repairs, then remove and do the jams before reassembling one last time.

Love all the little touches you're doing to make this thing unique! The holes in the dash remind me of this....

[bowtieguy79]

I look forward to opening this thread every time there is updated photos! Great work, way to get outside the norm and do something unique!

[FrankieD]

Very nice touch

[Devillusion]

Thanks guys........appreciate the positive responses. Was unsure a few times how things were going to turn out. And has taken ALOT longer than planned, but think it should turn out ok in the end. (I hope)

Should have some updated pictures Sunday night or so. Buddy is coming back to finish up the top of the dash, and install my front and rear glass. The rear window rubber I got from LMC was completely wrong (waaaay to big). Not sure what happened there, but will have to find out.

Will keep you updated.

Dash is pretty much all tied up and finished now. FID pretty much killed himself crawling around inside the engine bay for a few hours this afternoon. I think it turned out pretty sweet if I say so myself. Something different, and that is sometimes a good thing in the custom truck world.

[Riveted1]

Sweet!

[kikkegek]

I am no big pinstriping fan, but this is SOOOOOO COOL!

[Mello Mel]

WOW !!! This is going to be so sweet, and the best part is you'll be able to cruise the wheels off this thing with no worries !!

ya, that was most of my insentive to build this the way I have. The local government is really cracking down on the custom culture here and putting a real damper on things. Getting sick of it to be honest....so with this build they can suck my ball peen hammer cause thus far everything will meet any current requirements they have been playing god with.
