Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

Good going Allan. You'll have some extra $$$ for your build. Now all you need is time to do both.

198plus

Welcome to the board, your truck is in good hands. When Alan gets yours done, that will be 2 trucks he has made progress on in a short time, really makes me feel like a slacker...
about the Miata. Super Chevy is in town this weekend 198 says he's going there to see what he can find. I hope I get to go to the show also.

I'm happy also. I want to do him a good job while working with his budget. We had a good conversation today about the doors. I think some better used doors or even new would be the lesser of the 2 evils.

Thanks Dennis, I guess I can work on mine when I get some downtime waiting on parts etc.

Tonight it took 2.5 hours to get the bed apart without destroying it. I had too torch 90% of the bolts and didn't mess anything up.





For those that might need to know this is where the rear sill welds to the inner panels. Fleets are the same. My fleet had a tack on the top of the sill also. This one didn't. Remember the bed is upside down in the pic.



Ready for the blaster

Re: 198Plus build by Alan's Classic

I have to vote against the re-pop doors. Being that Im not paying, I want to see you really work those things over to get 'em straight....I'm sure we'd all learn a thing or two.
