Picked up another pickup just for the inner fenders and a running board brace. Anyone need a parts truck? Cab is fairly solid. Needs cowls, cab corners and a few dents. Firewall, kick panels, and floor are extremely solid. Doors have a bent edge, but super clean and rust free.

I got what I needed off it. Hope to keep it out of the scrap yard.

nebdrummer · 06-28-2013, 07:27 PM

It's gone! Sorry Jamie, a guy got it this afternoon for 500 bucks. I couldn't pass that up. I only paid 250. Lol.

Damn it

99 to Life · 06-29-2013, 11:09 AM

250 is a steal, I'd buy that all day for 500

nebdrummer · 07-01-2013, 01:38 PM

This weekend I got the seat and seat frames mounted, and I got the firewall to booster braket done. I used the original cowl vent brace that I trimmed up to fit. I don't think it could be any more perfect of a fit. I'm able to only get 2 clicks out of it though. It should move plenty of air even at the 2 clicks.

Then we started talking about where to mount the battery, so we threw on the box, then got all anxious and put a fender on and rolled it outside. *drool* I think its low enough. Lol.

Tuesday or Wednesday I should have my gas pedal to get mounted up, then all the interior stuff can be ripped out. Then i sand the inside and spray lizard skin. Then put it all back in and run the brakes. Then paint!

xpickup · 07-01-2013, 01:49 PM

Nebdrummer, it looks great. The stance looks great to. I can not wait to see the whole thing painted.

yeah looks great, glad to see you keeping the vent, I love the little things like that which keeps the trucks originality. Such an awesome way to stay cool back then and even to this day.

Bubba54 · 07-02-2013, 05:24 PM

Nice work, trucks looking great.

**chev3600** · 07-05-2013, 12:13 AM

If the rest of the paint looks anything like that fender, it'll be gorgeous.

nebdrummer · 07-07-2013, 07:46 PM

Thanks guys!

Got the gas pedal mounted. I'm giving the good old panel binder a shot so I don't have bolts through the firewall.

Cut a 1x1 piece of tubing in half. Glued one half to the floor, then bolted the other half to it. This also makes it easy to move the pedal for unknown reasons if need be down the road.

Lizard skin sprayed!

looks great, I like the lizard skin. whats that seam sealer you used in the cab. I've seen alot of people use that but never knew what is really was or what brand. I'm assuming its kinda like a weld sealer?

nebdrummer · 07-26-2013, 12:31 PM

Thanks. It's a direct to metal two part seam sealer.. Either 3m or ever coat. I can't remember which one right off hand.
