Re: Randy & Jakes 64 4x4 SLOW build
Making some good progress my friend! That level of rust might scare me off but it looks like you've jumped right in and attacked it without looking back! Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Re: Randy & Jakes 64 4x4 SLOW build
Ok finally had some time to work on the ole truck,I got another grill cuz mine was tweaked a little,the top one was the one that came off of truck and the bottom is the replacement even though the top one looks better,oh well It's got patina.http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/...psb6ea5cd5.jpgALSO needed to work on the frame horns since the frame is a 70,so I cut the ends off to add the correct ones so I can put the bumper on.the header panel is tweaked,and of course one side of the radiator support is rusted out on passenger sidehttp://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/...ps7aa6a2ed.jpgGot some patching to do on the fender wells near the front,got lucky and only rung off 2 bolts,The front end has never been apart,had to take a hammer and screw driver to chip away the undercoating,the battery box is perfect just needs to be cleaned and painted,I got more done in one afternoon than months considering all the rain and bad weather since the truck is outside..but I still got a long way to go,I'm gonna patch it up for now and prolly go ahead and get tags and put it on road to use as a back up vehicle.atleast if I get all the patching done then it will be easier to redo later...http://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/...ps01070d9d.jpghttp://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/...ps573b2afd.jpghttp://i1168.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3bb594d0.jpg

Re: Randy & Jakes 64 4x4 SLOW build
Woo-hoo got the driver floor-toe board all patched up and the rocker all welded up. got the door back on and now done pulled the passenger door and tearing out the rocker and the flooring, hopeing this side will go faster. someone has already replaced the lower fender section but they didn't replace the brace that the bottom of fender bolts to. got a long way to go. then I can start patching up the radiator support and the fender wells. Proly gonna need another hood as this one is pretty toast.. It'll do for now as it will be a while before I start on out side. Gotta replace door bottoms inner and outer, so I've got plenty to keep busy..

Re: Randy & Jakes 64 4x4 SLOW build
You are a brave man, tackling all that sheet metal work!
I wish I had the body work talent to do that, and get it right. Keep at it! |
Re: Randy & Jakes 64 4x4 SLOW build
Thanks Jason, I don't claim to be a body man I don't mind tearing one apart as far as sheet-metal cutting and grinding and welding, It's that fine sanding primer and more primer and more sanding more primer. It's that fine tuning the body for paint. But in the end will be worth it. I've got close to paint on a lot of vehicles, then for some reason another I always have to sell and never see the end product, I vowed that I will finish this one. I'm getting too old to be starting all over again.
