Re: Project: What the hell did I get into???

I'm not sure if you have rear interior panels or not, but the 3 pairs of holes in the "box" sides were for mounting hardware. If you knew this, sorry for opening my yap, wish I was this far along.

I knew those holes were for the interior panels, but I don't plan on using them so I figured I'd smooth them over..

So I was taught this trick a long time ago and figured I'd try it here. A quarter fits perfectly in the antenna hole when shaving...

Re: Project: What the hell did I get into???

Very nice work, man i wish i could find a tub like that! I've spent hours and 12 pounds of flux core Mig wire on mine already and I still have 30% left to do!
My truck looked like yours when i got it too ( same color even ) and I was sure not ready for what was under the carpet ..... many hrs & $$ later..
Good luck with your project
This is what I thought was a blazer in nice shape...
