That thing is gonna be like brand new. Way to go at that stuff!

 

finally finished the frame!

 

Nice progress. Your pictures really drive home the size of the big truck parts!

 

That frame is looking really nice (really long too!). The Eaton axle is massive compared to the standard banjo one. Keep at it cause warm weather is just around the corner.

 

Nice job! I like the way you get on a task and see it through to completion.

 

thanks on the nice words. got my pedals back in today,found a place for a clutch return spring. and installed a new rear brake pipe. try and bleed brakes tommorrow,and install drive shaft. would like too have cab back on this weekend. we had a cold winter ,can,t wait on warmer weather. i got about 3 weekend left, to work on truck.

 

It was in the mid 40's here today and felt great! This Winter has been a doozy for the Northeast and I'm ready for Spring.

 

got a good bit done on driver side door. had a buddy help me,he,s pretty good at working tin.the bottem door hinge was all broken inside,welded nuts to easly remove bolts. after 3 install and remove we got the door pretty nice. i got alot of welding to do on door yet.

 

forgot last picture.

 

Nice job! Not much room to work inside those doors. I'm not looking forward to installing my window regulators and all that stuff.

 

Really nice work.

 

its kind of tight inside. took me a while to remove window and regulator. i think i found a way!!! i got a new window crank gear to install,its was a modern vise grip window crank! i try and take a few pictures of how i took it apart.thanks on the encouragement! probably won,t touch right side door,will see how much time i can put this week!

 

Pics would be great!!!

 

Nice work as usual! I would have such a hard time only working on trucks 2 months out of the year. Why can't you do a little door welding or axle work let's say on a Saturday afternoon in July? Maybe I am being too nosey.....

 

me and my brother own the shop. the thing is its slower in the winter months. my wife is a figure skating teacher,so she is really busy in the winter months,and works when there no school. so thats evenings and every weekend. i work every second saturday,and my brother works the other ones. being its slower i get some time to work on it in the week days,a few hours here and there. and the saturdays i work (we close at noon saturdays) after lunch i go back to about 8pm.and sometimes sundays. now end of march is tire changing season,my days will be quit busy,and i need more recouperating time now(white hair thing). summer time is busy to ,and i can,t take up the space. kinda sums it up!
