Re: Its official My 68 Build "Midnight"
It's looking good, I am right behind you. I have started tearing my 1966 down to the frame. I might be sending some questions your way if you don't mind.

Re: Its official My 68 Build "Midnight"
I got the frame ready to be blasted after dimpleing the frame for the power steering gear box. So hopefully after Christmas it will be blasted and I can get some paint on the frame and get the chasis rebuilt and back together

Re: Its official My 68 Build "Midnight"
I blasted mine in the driveway....but before i blasted, i pressure washed it, washed the frame in caustic acid, and then proceeded to get blast media all over my driveway....it took two rains and 4 passes with the city sweeper to get rid of it.

Re: Its official My 68 Build "Midnight"
I didn't even notice how nice that cab was the first time I looked at this. Man it's not rusty or cut at all. It's better than my desert cab and I know you guys get more weather than us. You took good care of that ol girl!

Re: Its official My 68 Build "Midnight"
It finally got warm enough here to put some paint on the frame. Just have to put the second coat on tomorrow and then flip it over and finish the other side of the frame. Pics will come soon

Re: Its official My 68 Build "Midnight"
Progress has been slow. The humidity here has been too high to finish the chasis painting. Hope that I can get it finished soon so I can start rebuilding the suspension

Re: Its official My 68 Build "Midnight"
Well finally got the rest of it all painted. Now to rebuild the front end and clean up the rear end for paint. I might still have a little bit of touch up left on the frame but will have to wait till it dries to tell.
