Re: '72 C/10 Custom Cruiser Project

ok, here we go.

The truck came home sometime in mid may. not totally uneventful, my radiator got trashed but thats a long, crappy story.

the first thing was sanding the interior, with help from mom. (thanks mom!)





next we cleaned the frame, to prep it for some nice chassis black.





the rust encapsulator came next but i don't have any pics, and now the beds on,. but it will come back off to actually apply the chassis black.

so next was prepping and undercoating the bed.






that came out to my liking, but not perfect, but whose going to see it anyway.

now were in early july, almost time for the second sentence in body shop prison, this time for the bed, so it had to go back on the frame!





so it made it back to prison without harm and more bodywork began, then abruptly stopped.



no more stake pockets!




all smooth




now the word is collision jobs are WAY more important..... sooooo, it will have to wait, and i most likely will miss my wishful completion date.... ohh well.
