and before you say it, yes, i advised him to spend his money on a ford before he fixed the chebby. he wouldnt buy in...

 

Looks like the formica countertop is going to work perfect. Now it is off to the local fabric store to see what kind of material I can come up with.


I also got the back of cab sanded and the front of the box is done.



Hopefully it will be in primer within a week so I can get it block sanded. I just have to see when the body shop has an opening for his spray booth.

 

SUBSCRIBED!!

 

ranger429: WORK FASTER!!! lol.

 

Love it all Looks like a ton of fun... I used a 5' x 4" section of MDF (speaker box board) to block my bedsides. Works excellent with dry guidecoat and a second person keeping even pressure on the board. I'm certain this is going to be VERY noice.

 

What material are you wanting to use for the headliner?

All your work looks awesome btw.

 

Thank you guys.

Thanks, I am going to be looking for black vinyl material. I'll use a piece of 1/4-3/8" foam padding to make it look like a Lariat headliner.

Test fit of the headliner. It looks like I need to take about a 1/4" off each side and 1"off the back. From this dry run it looks like it will work perfect. I still have to grind off the center support section where the original plastic clip mounted to.

 

What are you going to do to fix your gaps?

 

What gaps?

 

wow completely misread that. Thought you were saying it was too small by those measurements. my bad

 

There is a 79 crew cab 4x4 for sale on Portland Or. craigslist if anybody is looking for one,
he is asking 4250.00 OBO

 

Thanks for spamming my thread with a for sale item.

 

I'm sorry, it was not my intent, it isn't mine and I have know idea who it belongs too.
I just thought it would be of interest to those that are crew cab enthusiasts

 

lol. id buy it if i had the cash.

 

The "crew cab only" thread might have been a better place to post.


Now to get this back on topic - any pics of the headliner "mocked up" and in place?
