I acquired an old pick up sleeper a few months back and have been picking at it for a while. The plan is to have a place for the dogs to ride and not loose bed space, plus I have always liked kidnappers.

This one was intended to fit a late model Chevy but i will be able to make it work. I will need to add spacers underneath to align the rooflines and rework the window opening at the cab. I thought about cutting the front loose and reglassing it to match the cab angle but i just need it out of the garage right now. A 2x4 brings it up to the correct height so I'll make a frame for it to sit on and help with the anchoring to the bed too.

And the supervisor had to check to see what I was doing to her truck.

 

I installed a new steering wheel wrap. Cracks kept catching on my wedding ring plus they were just annoying. I also fixed the horn button itself. It was pulling away at both ends.

 

I installed a aux NOS gas tank on my Supercab



I replace the turn signal lamp sockets

Found a lot of useful gear in there, too, including the headlight surrounds and the radiator shroud. Plus a stack of old tools... gotta love old tools!

Replaced the drive shaft carrier bearing, no more rattling, woohoo!!! Also found a new way to pull the carrier bearing since I have broken quite a few 3 jaw pullers getting them off. Use a OTC heavy duty pitman arm puller, works awesome.

 

Seam sealed the bottom of donor cab, painted it with POR 15 and then top coated it. Placed it on the frame today at lunch time. Lots more still to do!

 

Not a damn thing...........

 

I changed my spark plugs....and now it also has a nice lope to it

 

Dasher, that there is a purdy truck!!!

 

Thanks Super, its coming along...slowly
