Project '64 Cheapskate

[chevyrestoguy]

I finished doing the CLR scrub on the roof today, so the majority of the rust removal is complete on the exterior. I also got around to installing the Custom cab pillar trim:

Check out how many holes there are for all the mirrors the truck has had in it's lifetime. The dude obviously loved to drill holes!


I pulled the gauge cluster out to give it a good cleaning and inspection. I had a good laugh. The truck had been sitting so long in the blazing desert heat with the windows closed that some of the numbers actually fell off the bezel! The picture doesn't show it very well, but there are a pile of numbers on the bottom of the cluster. So, I definitely need to get a bezel for sure. I would love to add a tach, but we'll see how the money situation is. I've been staying on my budget so far, and I don't want to get off-track.


Next step: CLR the inside of the truck! That is going to suck..........
