Wally will look really good at Cruising the Coast (I hope).

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

I love this truck! Been seeing pics in other places, like the T-shirt. I'll be watching.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

Too cool, & you're doing a great job! Curious what high-temp silver paint you're using?

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

It's a Duplicolor high temp paint, I believe it's DE1650

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

Looks great Keith! I know you told me long ago but what flat black paint are you using on the chassis?

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck

Keith, what's the story on that paint booth set up? That'd be great for me...

Thanks

I made a bracket to hold the PCM under the dash using factory holes. I also modified the TAC module to bolt on the PCM so it's all together.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

Starting to slowly go back together.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

I modified the heater box to run my A/C and heater hoses and filled in the blower motor cover.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

Heater box back in the truck.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

Have most of the front sheet metal back on, still a long way to go.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

It's a 10x20 portable garage (basically a tent) with lighting on top and in the middle, we also put roofing paper on the floor to keep the paint off the concrete and since it's a little sticky it helps keep the dust down....very low tech but it works :lol:

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

Thanks.

I like to cover the wires coming out on the firewall so this time we tried something a little different than the last ones I've made. I started by making a aluminum ring that bolts to the firewall.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
 

Then I used a blower motor cover off a 67 Nova and bolted it to the ring to hide the wires. I heat shrieked the wires later to make them look a little cleaner.

Re: "Wally" The 68 Service Truck
