Re: 68 project

Was able to get all the wear bars painted tonight, rear crossmember removed and the tank set into place. There is something now missing in the second pic, who can find what is missing ?

Re: 68 project

How many pieces of wood did you go through before you decided on the ones you were happy with? You had a stack in the pic when you had them shipped to you.

Re: 68 project

I will definitely need a hand when I am ready to assemble the bed. That would be tough by myself especially being painted. I will be out of town this weekend. Maybe the next weekend though.
