Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
My weekend started off with big plans...
 Had the use of a plasma cutter, that decided to quit after cutting about 5% of what I'd planned on cutting...  After the Plans to cut a bunch of stuff were scrapped, I spent the remainder of Sunday starting the filling process of the pool and spending time with the wife...  Today I rolled the cab into position to get started on preparing it for re-installation…  IMG_3441 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrAfter uncovering the tarp, and discovering a colony of ants had taken up roots on the roof… a bit of ant spray and off to work…  IMG_3443 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrI began by removing the heater box and wiring harness… This switch will have to be replaced…  IMG_3445 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrSpaghetti...  IMG_3447 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_3450 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrGood plan on replacing the 50 year old wiring… these wires hooking up the turn signal flasher have obviously been overheated…  IMG_3449 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrThen it was on to the floor… The hole for the Automatic shifter had to be welded up and a new hole for the 5 Speed shifter cut… Then weld up 44 various bolt holes that had been drilled into the floor...    IMG_3451 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_3453 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrIMG_3453 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_3455 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_3456 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrNext is to grind the welds a bit, prep the floor for the sound deadener, sand and paint interior, install yet to be purchased wiring harness… and on and on… Moving forward...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Looking good brother!!!! I used peal and seal from lowes it was a lot cheaper than some of the other stuff and it looks just like it. I think it was $16 dollars roll and I used 3 rolls on the floor.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
good work don. i just got my harnesses from classic truck parts in kansas city. pricey but fit and function were very good. i'm not a rewire guy, much prefer to just plug up repro wiring and be done with it.
the floor in your truck looks in great shape... keep rocking on bro. |

I've been a little behind in staying current on everything going on. Belated congrats on the wedding ceremonies. That has to be a gratifying feeling for everyone involved. Hope everyone is having a productive week. Regards, Mark.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
I think I may have an extra resistor for the heater Don. Give me a day or two to look for you. I have a whole 65 heater boxed up and use for it.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
Got a couple of boxes in today via the USPS, i.e. Snail Mail...
Stoked, my 710 Cap arrived… AKA my Oil Cap...  Seen a story on FB recently describing a blonde who couldn't find the oil filler cap on her car, because all she could find was the 710 Cap...  IMG_3478 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrMy Valve Cover Vent arrived also, then was taped off and the painting begun…  IMG_3481 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr IMG_3482 by Donald Olivo, on FlickrAfter a trip to town I returned with floor insulation… Thanks Donnie "dwcardfan" for the product tip…  IMG_3484 by Donald Olivo, on Flickr

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
I do like the idea of the flip fronts on our trucks.
However, just how sensible and practical is it? (Knowing sensible is not a word used to describe me often) Red truck is absolutely stonking.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...
With the move I haven't been able to check on folks progress except what I see on FB. Your making some great progress.
Did you get the 710 cap off my FB page? I also used the peel n seal works good.
