Re: Francis the Tow Pig - 1949 GMC 250 Dually

How about something other than frame and engine pics!

Finally installed the back brakes (calipers/pads/rotors). No pictures of that, you know what they look like.

Started working on the cab. Spent all day Sunday trying to get things done. Finished the seat mount brackets, including paint. I was able to get a "hump" welded in to clear the tranny tail shaft. Just cut out the center, flipped it over, and stepped on it a little to get the "wings" to lay out further. Painted the floor, back wall, inner firewall, and kick panel area with Rust Bullet. That stuff gives off some pretty wild fumes. At this point I started cleaning up the garage and had planned to be done for the day. Then I started removing indicator lights and such from the dash...then I did some taping...and all of sudden I was spraying some paint. Ran out of paint pretty fast, but I like how the color is turning out. It's called "Champagne Mist".

Before I walked out, I screwed in my new AN fittings for the tranny.

Pretty productive day.
