Re: Project MPS ll
took the box off to put my fuel tank in and found more crappy body work by a previous owner, they put new cab corners on and didn't fuller weld them for starters, then fiber glassed over them to hide the gaps without sanding so it had some to adhere to so it started to come off I ended up illing it off in one big strip
so I can only imagine what the other cab corner is like not to mention the rocker panels. so now I can add cab corners to the list of butchered drip rails, and fiber glass covered cab supports im thinking im just going to find a cab that is at least a lil better shape with good floors and drip rails at least so I need to fix that cab corner an prime the back of the cab and box before I can put the box back on Last edited by 1972BackInBlackC10; 05-29-2013 at 07:03 PM. |

Re: Project MPS ll
got my gas tank put in and fuel line ran, just need to put clamps on fuel line, hook up the vent line for the tank, extend and hook up the wire for the sending unit/fuel gauge then put the bed back on and install my bed mount fuel filler, already drilled the hole for it in the box, oh and I need to hook up the fuel line to the fuel pump
going to be ordering new inner fenders, body mounts, inner/outer grill. hopefully find some good used bumpers and possibly order some new rims next week sometime hopefully |
