#1 is here...

I'm no longer working long hours during the week, we're on a 7-3:30 schedule. Good morning all, hope you guys had a great weekend! Well, still have the boat. The guy coming in from out of town had a family problem, said he might come next weekend if I still have it. The other guy was good to go, but then I think his wife shut him down. Why would he ask his wife before spending 12 grand? What a buffoon....LOL

Sorry about the boat Pat.

Took a bit for me when I sold mine, but eventually it went without a hitch

Yeah, it'll go enventually. I spent about 5 hours on the 67 yesterday, got the pass. side vent box off of the cowl section, then 98% of the spot welds off along the windsheild, before it felt like my arm was going to fall off.....LOL

Tell me about it! Should have the cowl and dash out this week. I'm also considering removing the panel around the rear window, since it never got painted behind there. and I can pound out a few dents along the back of the cab roof.

That's how I did the 46. Once those panels came out, it made it easy to fix all the damage from when it was a tractor trailer.
Made it clear how easy it would be to chop it too..... Maybe I need to get Don to cut the top off one out there, and ship it east, lol

I've seen all of the place these cabs can have hidden rust, so I'm attacking all of them!

I don't blame you, I redid my 66 belvedere 2 times.

When it started to show rust again, I sold it.

I only want to do this once. I know two guys who have painted these trucks, and had rust come through the paint within a few years. I'm not going through that!!
