Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"

Well with the cab in the rotisserie I was able to start getting if ready for paint



So after finishing both outer rockers I started cleaning up the underneath



Then brush sealer was applied



Finally ready for under seal spray schutz underseal




I know I’ve said it before but I am so glad I purchased this rotisserie

I finally feel it’s getting further along

Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"

The good news
My new bed strips with the fitting kit , and body mouldings and the clips have arrived. On all the C10 Facebook pages most people had recommended Mar-k in Oklahoma for the body mouldings. The reason for this is they are made in the USA no cheap Chinese copy’s . The problem I had was Mar-k don’t deliver to the U.K. . The good news is Topspeed and there sister company CM Frost were able to purchase them from Mar-k and ship them over to the U.K. as they are an agent for them . They arrived very well packed . As for the truck I spent most of the weekend sanding and prepping the floor inside ready for primer.

Thanks Bill I would like to at least have the cab painted underneath and the engine bay painted, and the inside all painted Then I plan on getting the cab back on the chassis. If it’s done by the end of the summer, I can start fitting all the parts over the winter . This arrived today to help it happen

Well I thought I’d put some updates on . I managed to paint the underneath of the cab with stone chip then the colour. Hugger orange.





Next I primed the firewall then prepared it for colour








Well it’s getting there at last

Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"

Well I got a bit more done on the truck this weekend.
Inner fenders back from sand blasting.
Then the rusty section was cut out and the rust replaced with new metal.
Then filled and prepared for primer.
Then high build primer.

Re: Martin's mi-STRESS, 1965 Long Fleetside C10 "Rebuild in ENGLAND"

Well with the weather changing I put all the truck panels away in the garage and started working back on the chassis.



The first job was to cut the crossmember to make way for my exhaust







So the fun has started
