Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

Hey Jesse, Are those Coker tires? I dig the interior color. It is something similar to what I want done, that or gold.

Keep up the good work.

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

Thanks all, This forum keeps me motivated for sure... so i got all the patch panels done (lower doors & fenders) and now im doing some body filler work.

Sprayed some eastwood rust encapsulator in the doors to slow down the rust inside and made some small patch pieces for both sides. Had to clip the lower fenders.



And made a Mig lite for the welder, had a coupon for free LED flashlights at Harbor Freight so i cut some vacuum line and wire tied the light on. Works great i can see better and its free.

Thanks again, Jesse

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

That's a great idea on the light. I was just thinking last night about needing more light. These old eyes of mine have trouble seeing the wire. I think I'll steal your idea. I happen to have a couple of those free lights kicking around, too.

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build

Yeah I'm going for it. I'll be out in the garage tomorrow sanding on the truck and get one more coat of primer on it. Then block it and spray the satin green. Then put it back together and finnish the bamboo slat bed floor. I'm trying to get a hold of a trailer, might just rent one from uhaul.
