Re: Well I bought another one
Couple shots of the cab mounts and inner rockers. Can’t believe there’s still black paint under the mud. I’m thinking of blasting the floor bottom and and blasting coating the frame. This is going to start snowballing already lol.

Re: Well I bought another one
Got alittle work done on truck but getting yard work done and winterizing everything around here has held me up. Sent frame, inner fenders and rad support out for blasting and coating . I told guy satin black like my previous frame and everything was done in flat Going to take it back or give it a quick coat if guy doesnt come through and fix it . I blasted inside of cab other day and found some rot above windshield. Wasnt expecting that but at least they sell that patch now. Rest of cab looks good typical drivers floor area and kick panel. Very little to patch on passenger side. I'll do both rockers inner/outer and some spots on rear cab flange. Need to blast bottom of cab floor yet if winter weather holds up then I can start metal work soon

Got to love those dry and preserved California trucks.

Re: Well I bought another one
Thanks for the Volvo clock tip! It looks like the knob for adjusting the time is above the 1 o'clock position just under the top lip of the instrument cluster housing. You must have rotated the clock 180 degrees from its original Volvo position, as similar Volvo clocks on eBay have the adjuster at the lower left.

Re: Well I bought another one
You are correct. I had to create an clearance opening in the top of the housing for the mechanism. Then it was simple as rotating the clock face 180 degrees.
