Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Not sure about the wheel. Was in there when I got the truck. The inner support ring is broke. Bought a billet replacement.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Too much stuff going on to really get alot done. Parts rolling in every day. But I have managed to get most of the front roughly fitted. Just bolted the hood on to see how it was gonna look. Didn't try to align it at all, but at least it's a little bit of an update.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

The 68 clip has always been my favorite and thought that one day I would do it, but wasn't planning on being this soon. Schwinn. I'm glad it was a woman that hit me, had it been a guy, it may have gotten ugly bro. Lmao

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

Plinking away at it a few minutes at a time. Got my inner fenders on, bumper, lights, emblems, wheels and steady working on aligning panels. Feels like I'm chasing my tail in that department tho. Thanks to Nobby and 68lowburb. They've been a big help in the parts department. Getting closer to drop time too. 2.5" more up front and 2" more out back as soon as my notch and panhard bar arrive. Got one of robs shock relocator kits to install too. Anyway, not quite a looker, but hey, everybody loves pics right? Crappy cell iPhone shots are the best I've got.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

I've got most everything installed now. Panel alignment still a thorn in my side. Still need to weld a couple trim holes and one patch panel in the door jam. Install some outer bumper brackets and my new antenna. Of course Theres still my spndles, blocks, notch, panhard bar and shock relocators to install. Other than the welding, just really minor stuff left to do before I blow it back apart for paint. Me and a buddy made a trip to Gator Drag yesterday in the old girl. 180 mile round trip and she did a fine job. Couple pics with all the trim other than the side fender trim around the grill and headlight bezels. 6 more holes and it's installed. Also wanted to say that man, as long as goodmark has been stamping these fenders, you would think they would have gotten the curve of the hood right. Gonna take some metal magic to fix that.

I completely forgot about Gator Drag being this weekend... and I live right there too. I spent the day at the house cleaning up my shop.

Re: Brewing up some Pale Ale

It'll be static for a little while, but should be painted and bagged before ctc. I've got CPP lowers, York compressor kit and a few other items for the bags already. The spindles, notch, porterbuilt panhard and no limit shock relocaters will already be installed when I go to bag it so it should be a breeze.
