That does suck. Did you find the guy?

ruffrida2005 · 07-01-2009, 10:50 AM

oh I'm looking, the guy hit a car in front of mine and totaled it, pushed it into mine and then hit every panel. then hit a car behind mine and broke the transaxle. It was at night no one heard it, he picked up hit peices and took off.

Dont mean to be off the subject Alan, so get back to work on those body panels!

198plus · 07-05-2009, 10:11 PM

Allen this is the truck I was talking about.

One more

Alan's Classic · 07-05-2009, 10:19 PM

Man, that's slick.

aggie91 · 07-06-2009, 12:14 PM

Can't go wrong with either of those, but I would do the corvette blue with a white insert in the molding...

198plus · 07-06-2009, 07:26 PM

Bought me a new 400 Trans........Should be a pretty good trans

It's built right with several HP tricks, Including:
Dual Fed Direct Clutches (greatly increases torque capacity in high gear)
Modified pump (frees up HP/saves crankshaft thrust bearing)
Manual/Auto valve body (hold/downshift 1st or 2nd at any RPM)
HD front band
Rollerized case bearing
New bushings
New Modulator
Raybestos/Borg-Warner frictions throughout.
Deep Pan w/magnet
Hi-Flow brass filter

Round 2 with the bed. 198 brought the fleet to me today. Rust wise it's in great shape. Dent wise is another story. Here are some pics.

I hit the sides real quick with a long block with 80 to show the highs.

Put the floor braces in to support the bed while I work on it.

Got some rust to repair

rear corner pulled away

Alan's Classic · 07-06-2009, 07:45 PM

worm holes

Nice straight tail gate

One rust hole

Can't figure out what these hole are for, I think it might be from a PO

jsmithbm · 07-06-2009, 07:57 PM

Alan, how are you going to fix the mild rust there? Just curious. Are you going to trim out the rust and patch in a new lip?

ruffrida2005 · 07-06-2009, 08:18 PM

I think the holes since right in the middle and there little, maybe license plate. dents dont look too bad. Nothing a little filler and hammers can fix!

70 Suburban · 07-06-2009, 10:19 PM

bondoglass weeeeee

Hey lookin good as usual

Alan's Classic · 07-07-2009, 09:11 PM

I'm a scrounger if ya'll haven't realized that yet. I started off by trying to find some metal here in town, good luck. Then remembered there is Ingrams truck bodys here in town. They didn't have any metal light enough for me, but said I could dig threw the dumpster. So I went dumpster diving and brought this home.

Worked on the LT bedside only, patching rust and pulling dents. I had a hard time getting the pull pins to stick. I was using an extension cord so I eliminated the cord and it worked better, but still had some trouble.

Didn't really want to go up this high, but the metal was pretty thin from corrosion. I felt better by eliminating it.

*THanks Alan for the showing me that part. A guy at the shop was going to do my inner and out rockers for 150.00. Does that sound way out of line?

Looks slick as a bottom.
