Re: Zane's Ride

OKAY! We just posted new photos in the Zane's Ride gallery, including one of the build sheet. We got 'action' shots showing the kids moving the bed and they are posted too. We had a good discussion with both instructors. We need a good resource for a windshield, and to find out if there is anyone who has them in Alaska. And we are probably going to use paint on bedliner instead of POR for the floor of the cab. Before we haul away the 63 frame from one of Zane's original trucks, we are going to verify that the 62 body won't fit on it. The 62 frame is good too, but they are trying to keep and use what we can from his 63. These students are something! They win awards in competitions, and they are preparing for one now. They will get the engine on a stand wrap and store the tranny, and work on those next school year, and over the summer the chosen frame will get sandblasted and painted and the engine disassembled and cleaned. The auto body students will get a coat of primer on before summer.
