Re: my 87 chevy project
 

suggestions on getting them dints and the messed up prt of the bed fixed?


prefer little bondo as posible

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

I am not a body man by any means, but I have a full set of snap-on hammers and dollys Ive never used. You are welcome to borrow them if you want to give em a try. Plenty of good info on the net on how to use them. Just get it real close and thin skim coat of GOOD body filler. No bondo brand crap. even have air files and DA. Bought it all thinking I would give body work a try since I am a mechanic by trade I figure I would self teach body work and be self sufficient. Never have tryed tho haha.

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

that would be awsome

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

EVERCOAT GOOD body filler just like stated above, don't get the cheap wallyworld or the stuff you get at the local auto trap. i found drilling small holes when applying bondo will help it hold better. just an old trick my grandpa taught me, who was a bodyman. here's a link on how to spread it. http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/b...ler/index.html

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

i want that truck im in love with it

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

Really your talking about the green one??

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

to me looks a lil blue but yea the green one


i see that its bondod out but im wanting a 70s bad and that for some reason attracts me to it

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

Yeah it looks different in different light. Sometimes green sometimes blue. And yeah I would put it on the road if it wasn't such a rust bucket because I really like the 70's models to. Such a shame really.:waah:

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

I may can hook you up with a 70s front clip... I dont have a good hood tho. Id have to go through my parts

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

im liking wat i hear

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

what is going to happen with it?

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

Well like I said in the other thread that the pics are in i'm tring to find a truck with a good body so I can swap over all the drivetrain and suspension part and take out all the good stuff. Then more than likely scrap what evers left.

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

theres a couple on cl real cheap

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

ya, I love how its leanin, your's is comin along nice too, I have a bud that has a white one just like this, but he lowered it the free way, much better with a little money in it

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

Id love to have that truck if its a true and complete big block truck.... I got this decent 79 lwb bone stock, 100% complete with 305 2brl. Would LOVE to have yours as a parts truck...

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

wat bout me? jk spudz ur really making me change my mind to go to the 70 and with the whiet bumper to and im a chrome guy

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

mine a parts truck? cant, I'm addicted to it, oh jw if anybody knows if those 70's doors would fit on a 85 crew, need front doors bad, but want manual windows and all I have found so far is 70's

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

yea they fit just door panels are different. an no i was talking to spudz

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

thanks, gota try some, he quoted me, maybe on accident, i get confused easy, ha

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

Spudz are u talkin about me if so yeah it a true big block truck complete except alot of the metal.:lol:

Re: my 87 chevy project
 

I got a chrome bumper too. MAY be parting this truck out soon..... depends if I can get the title. Cab is trash, rest is salvageable. Motor is trash. Its a 250 6cyl with 3 on the tree. Has new tires I need to get off too. I have another good 250 in a 71 nova I got for parts for my 68 nova. Thought about swapping cabs and putting the motor from my parts car nova into it for a beater truck. But only if I can get the title straight. I got a rust free cab too.....also no title. If I dont get the title straight soon I am parting it out... and I will hook you up with the front clip for your truck. fenders are decent i think, hood is crap.
