Re: 1965 C20 fleet side longbed DD low budget build.

Well. After the long weekend of huge plans for the truck. I managed to get busy all 3 days of my weekend. And had half of an afternoon to work on the truck . funny how life gets in the way. bed and cab bolted down and need to be aligned a little better, but it's 100 times better than how it looked this morning. I managed to sand my apache hood to 320g and still kept the factory paint. then waxed it. I was able to coat the bottom of the apache hoods support members. Still need to strip the rust off the sheet metal and do a little rust repair On hood corners. Decided to run the apache hood after staring at the 65 hood all week. Just looks better with the bubble hood..and my parts score. 4" lift springs from another forum member. 16.5 steel rim and 16.5 bfg m/t. for a full size spare in the bed and matching rim. Treads a little old but for a spare it's fine. And got some Y pipes I'm excited about. All in all a good weekend for sure.
