Got the frige . And I thought about a washer for shop rages . She gets up set when I wash them in the house . Come to think of it she gets a little up set when I throw my clothes that smell of old gas on the floor .

 

Dave,
Are those taillights from a galaxie or falcon. They do sorta look nice.

 

I think they are from a Fairlane . They are different . What is nice is they are high enough to be seen .

 

got the front clip off today , an extra set of hands would have been nice . wife wasn't home .

 

Great progress! Keep it up.

 

Hey doc did you get some more done on your new toy?

 

Got the box all apart , Sandblasted lower fenders and am making patch panels , Have ben blasting and painting small parts everyday, Took the gas tank and heater core to the shop to be cleaned and checked out , installed the new radiator and ran the truck around the yard a few times , water pump leaks, new one on order, The woman next door came over to see my wife, and I remembered there was four 8 lug wheels in her shed . Asked and she gave them to me . tubeless 16 for radials .

 

Good to see your still at it ! Photos?

 

Working every day

 

You going to pull the cab? Looks like you're making good progress!

 

Got the cab off, working on fender repair right now .

 

Underwear on the engine... OH MY!!!

 

Just as long as there's no skid mark

 

Hey, maybe he had that salamander heater going full blast and it got too warm in there?

Nice progress. I see that you covered up and fixed the 'escape hatch' in the back of the cab.
I was relieved to see that someone had a bigger hole in their cab than I did. Mine was only big enough to pass a loaf of bread through. Someone could vanish from that locked cab like Houdini before it was fixed.

Keep the pictures coming, looks great!

Tom

 

Don't worry, Dave will have his wife was his discarded underwear after she starts cleaning the engine and prepping it for paint. That is in between the times she's getting him something cold to drink on those cool 60° nights.
