Re: Project: "ResuWrecktion" '71 Custom Deluxe C-10

Seemed like I spent most of the weekend spinning my wheels!

I picked up a sand blast pot at Tractor Supply earlier in the week and then went to Lowe's on Saturday morning and bought a compressor since my little 15 gallon Craftsman wasn't gonna cut the mustard.





Finally got things setup and started blasting on the frame rails, got one done and ran out of abrasive. With the threat of rain Sunday wasn't productive on the blasting project.







A little rattle can primer to keep the rust away!

I'll get more abrasive this week and finish the other rail this coming weekend I hope. Pulled the front and rear glass out of the cab, found some rough areas in the front windshield channel. Pretty much what we all see with these trucks.









The rear glass channel looks about perfect, so I'm happy with that.



Hopefully next weekend is more productive, I'd like to blast the rusted areas of the cab before I put the cab corner on because I don't want to risk bending it when I roll the cab on it's back.
