Everything in red is Base Coat Clear Coat. Most of it needs to be cut and buffed still. We used Shop Line Plus for the base coat. The clear is by Autobahn.

Scoti, it was great to talk to you again. Looked for you again at your spot but never saw you there on Sunday. Hope to see that dually sometime as well as the '64. I might have to get my '65 drivable for the GG's show in October. We will see...

king-918 · 07-31-2013, 10:54 AM

I drove the dually around the block again last night & got the bed yanked off (no small task doing it solo). I should definitely be rolling in it come October. The 64 will follow....

Can't kech me · 07-31-2013, 05:38 PM

Don't worry guys, i have some better pics! no power steering sucks, it is near impossible to turn the wheels at a stop. We are trying to get it road legal for the the local whataburger cruise night tomorrow night. The bed has to come off and shocks be welded on. I have to get another wiper control switch because apperently the one we have is bad. We have an issue with the headlights that needs to be fixed, we have to come up with a high beam and blinker indicator, we have to put on the plates and rear plate light. Sounds like a lot but i think as long as i get some help on getting the bed off tonight, and guidance on how to mount the shocks, i can get almost everything else done tomorrow.

Owen gets credit for this next pic, i liked it enough it's now my iphone background!

This is a pretty drastic change. Every time I look at this picture it reminds me of how far it's come, how much i've learned, how much i sacrificed, and how much i've gained.

Woah,,,,,,,Skip from page 1 to the last page and a tree sap covered fleet side turned into a dream machine step side.

New to the forum, and glad to be, cause I woulda cried if I read $300 for two SWB Chevy's when you first started this forum.

I may be crying now, or is that dirt in my eye.

I looked back at the first page, we started 8/27/10 when we got it. Did not do much work until about 18-20 months ago. We did the most work in the last 8 months.

It is Victory Red. We used a light gray sealer to help make it pop.

I got home last night from work and Korbin had already started working on the issues we needed to make is street legal. We go the headlights working and the high beam indicator in the dash functional, the turn indicators work in the dash now and we got windsheild wipers functional with a toggle switch for now. The truck should pass our state safety inspection today and Korbin should be able to take it to cruise night minus the interior. Still need to do the rear shock mounts, but that might have to wait till this weekend.

ksbrktracer · 08-01-2013, 10:53 PM

Korbin an Karl ...... I have to say nice job ......Way to go , It looks Killer .....! Are you guys still thinking about coming to Slamily Reunion .... ?

aggie91 · 08-02-2013, 11:09 AM

Tommy - Thanks for your support on the wheels and your comments above. We both would like to come, but it may not be in the budget this year. We have quite abit going on this month and that weekend would be are only one off before school starts again. Thanks for the offer on the parking spot.

We ran into a problem last night. Korbin noticed a few lug nuts loose (typical for aluminum wheels) after only a few miles. We double checked all of them and 4 of the studs on one front hub spin like the knurling is stripped off. We will pull both front hubs off this evening and get it fixed over the weekend. Seems to have the new finished project blues...

86swb · 08-02-2013, 01:01 PM

Thanks, I might add the light gray sealer to my paint.

86swb · 08-02-2013, 01:05 PM

Aggie91, did you sand the sealer or seal directly to paint? Thanks

aggie91 · 08-02-2013, 02:14 PM

Sealer directly to paint.

86swb · 08-02-2013, 04:26 PM

Thanks

moregrip · 08-06-2013, 11:20 PM
