Very nice progress! Looks great

Re: Bad Idea
 

Got some update from the body/paint guy other day. Small problem with door skin tops. Just made too wide when you compare it to the originals. Needed to run him over the cowl so he could cut and slice and poke and prod and jimmy piss em into losing the gap. Photos should show more than I can word. He had it fixed that night. He says final finessing then next step is first coat of primer!

Re: Bad Idea
 

After the slice job.

Re: Bad Idea
 

Thats a good body guy... I bet he aint cheap

Re: Bad Idea
 

Your chassis looks very good. That sucks about the door skins but it looks like your painter has them handled.

Re: Bad Idea
 

What an awesome build. Great attention to detail. Can't wait to see more updates. Subscribed

Re: Bad Idea
 

I love the way the exhaust runs though this truck .. Can I get a few more pics ? Is that an after market cross member or did u cut out for the exhaust ? Tranny crossmember stock ?

Re: Bad Idea
 

Ya don't remind me.

Re: Bad Idea
 

I've seen some things he's fixed and I'm glad he's got the patience to do what he does.

Re: Bad Idea
 

Sorry that exhaust is not alive anymore. Won't be anywhere near the same whe it's redone. Exhaust guy hates me cuz I wanted it certain way. Previous owner did that to crossmember. Tranny crossmember was stock but is now changed also.

Re: Bad Idea
 

He sent me more progress tonight.

Your body man is moving along fast with good detail. I bet you wished you could turn back time and just had him repair the doors the first time around. Dealing with repo is like rolling dice you never know what your going to get.

Re: Bad Idea
 

I'm getting ready to hit my body guy up .. And get my drive train in order .. Can I ask what are you using for cross members and supports ?

Re: Bad Idea
 

Body and paint works sucks in my opinion only cuz I'm having to depend on someone else. Everything is still stock(ish) except the control arms and trailing arms.

Re: Bad Idea
 

Just checked out the build so far. Looks like you're rolling right along. I'll keep following along for more!!!

Re: Bad Idea
 

1st of the primer has begun.

Re: Bad Idea
 

Just caught up here but I like what you're doing to the ride. It looks like you'll have a real nice truck when you finish.

Re: Bad Idea
 

Been a little while...but uh yep I'm stuck in paint jail. Should be paint on it next week he says.

Re: Bad Idea
 

Sorry it's only letting me do one pic at at time from phone.
