I think you will be able to come close. I think krylon makes a color real close to that. Mine is hard to match! That camo color tan by krylon is an exact match to mine but ours are different colors. Good luck!
 
Better but still hurts. New gas tank arrives this week.

Looks good and remember nobody can see that spot anyway.....just make sure you have a drain hole!
 
Got a lot done this weekend.

New gas tank is installed and leak free.

Leaky heater valve is fixed after having to drain the radiator for a 2nd time.

Also got some of the seat brackets installed, and got the fuel filler cover installed as well.

Amazing attention to detail :cheers:

x10. crazy


Gracias, but the real test will be to see if the mechanical stuff runs. I'll be suprised if she doesn't fall apart in the shop parking lot!

Chris you're still on my list for tires, just have had other stuff get put in front...
 
Little more bling. Glad Bodean pointed out these should be silver. They look way better than when they were black.

Everything but the lines. Decided to do all new.

Spent some time at the shop today. Seems like everything I do on the truck lately turns into a huge pile of %#^*!

Electrical system is draining the battery...

Heater valve leaks...

No gas flow from tank...

Ugh.

...And we thank you for that! So do Woody and the IH8MUD servers :hillbilly:

LOL

i must say you have not run into to many hiccups with
This restoration. Just some minor stuff. I have had that issue when i tore apart my front axle for rebuild. Put it ALL back together then filled with gear oil and the front diff leaked. So i had to take it all apart to re seal. Ugh! Lesson learned.

Hang in there! Its going to be epic!
