Re: My Unexpected '66 SWB-Fleet-Restomod Project!

I did some interior cleaning this weekend, I sanded everything inside the cab.
While sanding the dash I noticed that quality control must not have been at its optimum levels at the time of original build. It seems that the dash was never secured to the cab on the right-hand side! The holes were so far off that you couldn't see them. I wedged the porta-power between the dash & floor & got them to line up, but busted spot-welds on the dash along the windshield frame in the process. All is golden now! I sanded every inch of interior, but only primed the dash with the epoxy. I'm gonna get some lighter weight primer for the headliner & rear of the cab.
