I'm getting another frame from UNCLE. Hopefully I'll be able to put the chassis back together when I go home in October. Then if my Painter, makes some progress, We'll put the body back on the chassis around Christmas time. Then, hopefully, some "real" progress will begin.

Hartrod. When you weld that panel back on that you cut off, do you put the por15 on there before you weld the panel or after? Can you get to it after to apply the por15???

That's going to take some doing. I'm having jaw surgery in the middle of all of this, , .

R
The rear panel, or even the front panel. Anywhere that two bare metals are being welded together. Do you put the por15 down, put the new metal then weld it???

Anywhere that two seems are coming together...

When possible, I try to POR15 the area after I weld it. That stuff puts off a pretty caustic smell when you try to weld near it.

Do you put port15 on the back of that new panel that your welding on?

Yes, just try to stay away from the weld area. After you have it all welded, then you can take a garden sprayer and put POR15 in it and spary up in an access panel to cover the rest.

Rob, i didn't realize you were so exceptional, @ all these projects. A trip down to see the 52 could turn into a beautiful thing. I was wondering, are you being transferred to New Mexico?, if so maybe i should wait tosee the 52, being i live in Wa. state.
Also another thing i would like to take this opportunity to thak you for your service to our beloved, country. Like you i served, in the 70's, in the U.S. Army. Later, Danny's 72 superchey

Danny,

Thanks for your support. We've got a lot of good folks doing a very difficult job and we will until the end. I've already tranferred to NM, but my family is still living in PCola until next spring. I don't plan on bringing more than one project out here when my family comes out (probably the Burb). I will store the other two in Pensacola with friends. Let me know if you are still interested. Take care.

I love seeing the burb! It is looking great.

So, it sounds like Donkey has been put on the back burner. I haven't been able to check out the site in awhile.

OK, I'm back in the game! I picked up a straight 3/4 ton frame from UNCLE and have started prepping in for all the components from my original frame. Also, my buddy started on the body work. He's almost got the firewall done and the bottom is ready to be linered. He should have that done by time I get the frame back together and then we'll mate the two together.

can you shoot some pics of the inside firewall area behind the glovebox, pls?

also, if shaving the stock gas filler, please do the same there as well if you can.

TIA

Re: 1969 Burb build-up (Bags, 5.3/4L60E, repaint, interior....)

I'll explain the reason I'm asking:

I was just curious to see if you ground (shaved) the inside of the cab smooth. I've seen three different member's trucks where they patched the in-cab tank hole (non-Burbs) and left the inside flange in place. I thought it looked tacky. I've seen a couple of photos here on the forum where people left the flanges inside the cab for the heater cor/AC assembly, and I also thought that looked tacky. I was just curious if you "shaved" both inside and out. It looks like you did (and somehow I'm an idiot and forgot you went w/aftermarket fuel filler)

Actually, I didn't shave the inside. I'm sure it looks a lot cleaner, but I figured with dynamat (or varient) on the inner firewall and the a/c hanging down, no one would know but me, . I filled each individual hole, some guys cut out the entire (or most) of the firewall and use one piece of metal to remove the holes. That's probably how they end up with a smooth firewall on the inside.
