Been working (a little) on the alignment of my bedside and tailgate. Also some mods to the taligate. Mostly getting rid of in-laws.

Re: What are you getting done this weekend....

it is quite simple. look up wet sanding on google and get the tips on how. once you got that down you are ready to spray. just take your time.

Re: What are you getting done this weekend....

I've built an insane rear bumper for my 3/4 ton truck. Think a Ranch Hand bumper 35 years ago. Rounded and burly. I've been buffing welds and spreading body filler over the welds. Hope to get it into primer tomorrow and paint this week.

Pics tomorrow.

Re: What are you getting done this weekend....

i swaped out the marker lights and tail lights on my 68k10 for nicer ones, put some insalation in the cab, cleaned out the cowl vent pockets, replaced one of the vent doors after i found the old one to be way to rusty to do any good, put a couple new light bulbs in the tail lights, remounted the bed on the frame, removed all the drums only to discover that i have no rear brake components and really worn out front components, the rest has been spent wishing i had more money, trying to find a 73-87 4x4 parts truck with good axles and brakes, and working
