1978 Chevy 4x4 One Ton Crew Cab

long time looker on the site, but finally putting my latest project one here that i have had for about 14 months. I bought the truck in Jan of 2018 for $2,500. It was a bit of a ragged out hunting rig that needed some help but the bones were there. Pick up came with a 8k Warn Winch, rear air bags, twin stick NP203 w/ a TH400, BB, Dana 60, 14 bolt in the rear, 50 gallon slip tank. But defiantly needed some help! .........Plus I found a 77 crew cab parts pickup that i robbed the doors, door panels, instrument bezel (I love the wood grain) headliner insert and molding and many other parts. Bought a front clip and bed off a 73 Suburban, so i'll be install the 73 grill, love the grills in that year. The thing has been a labor of love as most projects are, considering i've installed new front floor pans (first time welding in floor pans, challenging but a learning experience), rewired the truck as the original wiring harness was fried! put in a headliner, repainted the dash and welded holes Plus i've bought countless amounts of new parts, dash, gauge lens, locks, rocker chrome moldings, map pockets, etc etc etc. I know i am missing a lot as the project has been on going but here is a start to the thread. Tons more to come.

Looks good, what'd you use to repaint the dash and door panels?

bulldog spray adhesive is the best. I've used it on many plastic components |

I remember seeing that on CL last fall. Called but never went to look at it. I thought it might be a good short bed candidate. Keep on truckin with that project.
