Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.

Alan - truck looks fantastic! Loved pic 4 and 5.

Got the PS Door metalwork done and it's a bit wavy here and there... but I hope not too bad for all the effort it took. It was my first attempt at such a repair.

Started the filler work.

JWheeler331, should've bought a stepside, would've been less hassle, lol.

Funny thing is.......this was originally a step side. I traded the step side bed for the fleet side. I like the way it turned out though.

Unloaded this off my trailer. I will put it aside for future just in case I dislike a stock truck. It will be my turbocharged pro tour truck in waiting.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.

We have been bailing & hauling hay. My wife drove the GMC while I loaded the hay. the granny low 4 speed is ideal for creeping around the field. I really like using old equiptment. My 1944 LP M farmall cost $325. The international sickle bar mower cost $110 the side delivery hay rake cost $120. the Model 273 New Holland Hay Bailer cost $425 all the equiptment was purchased at auction sales. had one breakdown broke a shear pin on the bailer. quick fix with another 7/16 bolt. the $400 66 GMC that I saved from the scrap man never overheated and never missed a beat! So we have the winters hay all safe in the barn.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.

i'll have to upload a picture, but I ended up swapping the Jeep TJ coils in with some Monroe Air shocks to help fine tune the height. It's VERY comfortable this way.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.

Hey OldTruckMan - very cool pics!

I finally primed the PS Door... I'll sand it and shoot it one more time before hanging it back on the 62 and moving on to the next panel.

peace

Re: What did you do to your truck today part II.

I have change the insidebottom and I´m going to change the outer doorskin to, but befor I weld the new sheetmetal I have to wait for the doorglas channels, since it have to be much simplier to change that parts before I weld.

Hop on over to the new one and post up what you have been doing. The Part II thread is being closed. Thanks for everyone's understanding.
