Removed the front sheetmetal today and cleaned up the cowl area and por 15 it before inner cowl install I may lay on another coat once that dries.

Re: 68 project
 

Lookin good!

I didn't realize you had the whole cowl off!!!

Re: 68 project
 

It was on when you were at the shop but I only had temporary screws holding it into place, :lol: I wanted under the cowl to be protected with something that would hold up so I cleaned it up good and brushed it with por 15 good and heavy. :smoke: Plus I am going to modify a drain to come out under the cab to prevent getting clogged and running down into the inner side of the fender.

Re: 68 project
 

That's a great idea!

Re: 68 project
 

Thanks I will post pics of it when I get it done, I never could understand the engineering behind some of this :lol:

Re: 68 project
 

Hopefully tomorrow will be a big day for "Project 68". I plan to sandblast some more parts which include the cross braces for the bed and get a coat of POR-15 on those and finish up the other tub and work on the gate some more. Seeing it is going to be warm tomorrow I can shoot some primer on the bedsides also :chevy:

Stay tuned for some update photos tomorrow :mm:
