You could practice your redneck on us.

Make sure you have that pinner hanging out of your mouth again.

You got the dash finished up yet? Or are you like me and every project on the truck is halfway done?

The tooth pick could be my trademark.

I really don't recall what and how they are designed, but it should.

daverod · 03-12-2010, 01:08 AM

I've been messing with my 64 too much. I did work on my front end a little. My dash is welded in and mudded. I don't like the squareness of the center part. I'm thinking I'm going to cut a pipe in 1/4 and use that to round off the bottom.

Did I tell you my legs hurt.

sdailey · 03-12-2010, 09:22 AM

Looking good Alan. I'm glad that the filler neck mock up went well. I'll get the aluminum tube cut up today.

Also, I've got one of Ron Covell's welding dvd's here at work that I refer to from time to time with the shop guys here, I'll burn you a copy of it.

I agree. I think the blog idea would be the cheapest route for now until something else better comes along. We will see. Just got to find someone that has a clue about it.
Yeah I wonder how that works. Do people have to pay to join the blog?

BTW nice work.

This the flangeing tool that I used to flange the opening so the new panel will fit flush in the hole. I tried something different by editing the pic and typing on the pic. The fonts were bigger in the edit, but are not showing up as well here. Too much trouble to go back and fix since I over wrote the original pics.

It's hard to see the flanged edges, but they are there.

Shannon hooked me up and welded my the new filler tube in. Thanks Shannon.

1.5 hrs today

why don't you call your cable company and tell them you want The Speed Channel? I had to get the sports package here to get Speed, it's a must have for me.

Budget cutbacks.

I haven't had it for about 2 years.

Alan's Classic · 03-23-2010, 11:37 PM

Had the hood springs powder coated.

Got the 72 ebrake cables

I've got jury duty this week

I hope it doesn't run into the weekend. The "Chewin' the fat BBQ" is this saturday.

Also trying to get the 55 running.

ruffrida2005 · 03-14-2010, 08:08 PM

Looks good Alan. I always save the edit as another file first. I put like -1 after the file.

daverod · 03-15-2010, 12:06 AM

Looks good Alan. Your going to make me go to the junk yard tomorrow.

MacAttack · 03-15-2010, 10:52 AM

Look at my man's printing on the pic skills!

I'm glad to see that we got the height measurement right.

That fuel door is gonna turn out nice. Keep up the good work buddy.

Thanks Heath. It didn't turn out the way I wanted it too looks wise, but at least it'll hold gas I guess. It was a little "tricky" welding 1.5" tube in a 2" hole too.

Thanks, and the height worked out perfect.

Got the inlet tube worked out, I think. Get it tacked then figure out the vent. The pipe diameter is 1" at the narrow part. I thought about just getting an 1 1/2" pipe and weld it on where it necks down. Don't know just yet what I will do.

my67chevytruck · 03-25-2010, 07:39 AM

Nice Work Alan!

Jonboy · 03-25-2010, 09:07 AM

Keep it up Alan. You might have a second career as a hand model.

MacAttack · 03-25-2010, 02:34 PM

No photos - didn't happen. (Or so I was told, previously)

Mac.

You can drive out here and take a pic of us getting the spring installed.

Me too.

No progress on my side of the fence tonight. I went over to help Shannon set his cab on his frame.

Still in jury duty.

They said expect a long day tommorrow 8 a.m.-midnight. Trying not to run into the weekend. I did meet another jury member that had some mouldings and emblems for old chevys. He said he had no use for them and brought them to me today. I saw a couple 3100 emblems in the bucket. I was hoping to get a pic, but ran out of time.

Shannon and I did get the 55 running last night. Just have to fine tune the timing and carb adjustment.
