I have this 77 150 parts truck and its had the body work done to it. But the guy I bought it from bondoed everything and glued new panels on over the rear wheel wells. The bondo is at least a 1/2" thick. It also has spring spreaders cause the springs were saggin.

 

Homemade front cab mounts on the highboy I'm doing. Left one angled forward and the right one angle back. The floor pans were crap too- the e-brake cable was simply run through a gap where the welding wasn't finished.

 

top half of a cleveland oil pain welded to the bottom half of a rear sump windsor oil pan. never could figure out why the oil would never read on the dip-stick until i seen the stick was on the wrong end of the oil pan.

 

How bout puttin staples in a saggin headliner.

 

Regular house wiring (formerly in my truck) to add a second battery. The regular three cable with PVC sleeve.

 

I think our trucks must have been owned by the same person. Same exact problems with ours LOL.

S-

 

I like the pvc and house wirin.

 

Rubber hose on tranny cooler line high presure side at that. Cost me some serious time on the side of the road in New Mexico.

License plates for sheet metal on my 79.

 

AFAIK there is at max 10 psi of pressure there, not nearly enough to blow a rubber hose off. I have seen plenty and patched myself many a times those lines with rubber.

Dumbest thing ever, putting screws thru an XLT panel to hold it to the door.

 

-Tin applied with silicon to fix floor pans.
-Nails used as cotter pins. Just go buy cotter pins!
-Bondo does not fix rust!


That's all I got right now.

 

How bout screws through the trim on the out side along the bed.

 

replacing that pescy bailing wire that holds up everything, when it rusts through.
