I moved on to the fuel tank mount.

I want the tank to 'locate' off of chassis, rather than the body (as the Roadmaster was)

Location was marked, and a crossmember out of 2x2 was cut to length

Thanks guys !

**ChiefRocka** · 10-15-2015, 09:21 AM

The next step was to lift body again, and begin cut out of floor pan, and begin rust repair .....

**ChiefRocka** · 10-15-2015, 09:29 AM

The following are some pics of the floor cutout of Burb 1. A good portion of this floor was still in good shape, so I will be using most of it in my Burb 2 ...

Happy New Year Everyone !!

My shop has been taking a lot of my time, as we are extremely busy, which is a good thing.

I don't have too many update pics, just a few old ones I found of Burb #1 shell....

-
-

Since these pics were taking, I sat on the roof skin sat at my pad for a while, then I ended up donating it for the cause ....

**ChiefRocka** · 01-14-2016, 01:04 AM

Here are some more update pics from a few months ago ...

My daughter helped out a bit with some blasting, in pajamas of course

Back to removing the remainder of the rockers ...

**ChiefRocka** · 01-14-2016, 10:07 AM

The plan was to get the rockers and floor braces removed, before it goes over to sandblast and powder.

Continued ....

The powder coater needed his Rotisserie back for a couple months, so it sat on rollers for a while....

Girlfriend learning how to 'carefully' remove trim

**ChiefRocka** · 01-14-2016, 10:27 AM

These braces were added to locate the floor supports. The supports will be reinstalled after sandblasting...

jonzcustomshop · 01-15-2016, 09:08 PM

have you figured out the shift detent yet? I see like mine, yours has 5 shift positions, and for a th 350 we need 6, and a 700/200 r4 we need 7.....
my auto column was a powerslide...
looks like yours is a hydromatic?

All I ended up doing was trim a little off of the actual steering column tube ... To allow more travel.

The magic comes from the adjustability of the Lokar linkage that allows throw ratio adjustments.

Work really well actually
