Re: Super Cheyenne aka the "Devil Cowboy"

Been spending a few hours a day here and there getting the firewall ready for primer and paint. Found one small area about 6" x 6" in the driver's side floorboard that will need rust repair attention before shooting the paint. Spent about 20 minutes with a needle scaler in the upper firewall wire channel to get any old cracking seam sealer out. Also got the piece of metal I cut out of the side of the firewall where the fender goes, welded in, filler and some primer.

Also have been ordering and picking up parts needed. New ram horn exhaust manifolds showed up yesterday for the motor in place of the old headers that were installed. I picked up the rebuilt Th350 transmission and the rebuilt NP205 transfercase. So glad I got them done after I saw what was wrong inside both of them. Good as new now!
