what im working on now for her

this will take the place of the old fener gate pump ive been running, this will give me alot more movement as well.

finaly started putting on some of the trim Ive had put up for years back on

here she is sipping at the pump

got some more stuff to post later…stay tuned!

out after two cure cycles… it pinched up some but it will be a good solid base to fix all the body imperfections and other things that may pop up before I do my final paint

nothing special about the paint right now, just a black Limco Singlestage, witch I got to thank Accurate Auto Paint in Valdosta, GA the hookup

its a 20 footer…[Read more]

well got back on it again doing smaller spots like welding holes up and smothing over bad spots

along with finaly smoothing out the fender jambs and sealing them in well

then I decided to throw on some color on the outside at least till I have all my ducks in a row, then do my final paint only after I have my wheels, new chrome, full…[Read more]

well I started back on trying to get the rough bodywork done to this monster so got onto the front end again

getting the body up top to match the hood and blocking the rest out halfway decent

hood fit alot nicer now

also blocked and did addtional work to the fenders as well along with blocking and repriming the roof

and for…[Read more]

also finaly did the body work to the trunk lid along with the lower right quarter panel, its all roughed out in those areas now, so im just left with some upper fender work

had some custom spoons made of my design so I can straighten up the camber on the front, using heavy duty 2500 balljoints it did the trick, now my tires are perfect vertical rolling low. made of 1/2 because I dont need nothing heavier for this application.

made me a remote fill tank for my hydraulic pump hidden in the fender…

used part of a pump resivior

mounted up squeeky clean

still got to weld a bung under it to hook a line to the pump resi but its close

also finly got started on my right side pipes and extending my rocker like the left…

slow day at work resulted in this

BOOM!

heres the old one….still worked but weeping out water steadily

got my 4 inch cylinders in yesterday as well 😎

comming together :dance:

back for some updates!

finaly tired of riding static and decided if I dont get my ass in gear ill have paint on this unit before the hydraulics are working!! soo…. I allready have my plans laid out to order a few things but I went ahead and setup a single dump gate pump for the rear and hooked it up so I can lift the rear for some travel…[Read more]

got my new intake painted today 😎

Ill paint some more engine parts when I take them off when I put the intake on :think:

got the drivers fender in rough bodywork and primer today

and smoothed out and primed my remolded drivers arm rest.

tomorow ill probably put the drivers interior door together so everyone can get an idea how it will be when done.

oh btw….Am I the only one that is putting in work now?

Wixom, my panels where complete but raggedy… that metal armrest is actually the stock inner metal off the original drivers door but had to be shortened as the 99 dash extends out further than the 62… I think Ill complete the metal work on the drivers door panel this week so I can and everybody else better visualize the end product.

I got…[Read more]

tired of riding around looking at the insides of my doors :smt011 and had never really put much thought into exactly what and how I was going to do for door panels… But after getting sick of seeing the insides in my spare bits at work have cut and fabbed some panels… I got only the drivers side done the passenger is just the sheetmetal yet…[Read more]
