Thanks,
If the weather stays the way it it...I'd love to do a winter trip not to far away....with the wood stove in the tent it'd make it pretty easy. I'm trying to get a lead on a guy that does water treatment on our boilers here, says he has some acreage upstate and said to "go and use it"....hmmmm
mistake!
I'm sure we'll chat...
I'm reading through the build, and it incredibly intimidating with the amount of work needed to bring the truck to it's current state...holy cow! I really like those steelies though.
FYI..if you need to do some painting I have a nice self contained HVLP Titan set up to spray....it does a pretty sweet job with just a little practice. I also use Albert Kemperle, which is a LI based auto body supply company...I get a pretty good discount if you need paint or supplies.

Cleaning up the tailgate and 1/2 ambulance doors...
Sanded the tailgate with 80 grit then a little chemical gel stripper to finish them off... then prime and paint (bedliner for the inside of the tailgate since it'll see some use/abuse I imagine)
Much to my happy surprise I found the tailgate to be truely rust free... a rarity for sure.

Look like you need some yard cleanup as well.
I was there Saturday. Gotta say I'm a little jealous my yard doesn't look like that

Thanks Rich.
AND the "new" Supra seat install is going well... I should have them both in tonight. The will get the seating position down lower so I'm no longer looking through the top 3" of the windshield AND they have nice deep side and bottom bolsters too... Pictures to follow once they are in....

Shocks and driveshafts are for sissies.
Yes, Jim... This truck is a mashup of a bunch of different parts... Hardtop and doors and half ambulance doors and windshield and hood and bib are all different.
