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...

Between dealing with filling the pool, and finding out the flow control valve for the filter is shot... and taking the dog to the vet, I was able to get the cab completely in primer...
Here's the floor in primer…

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 Flickr

My Valve Cover Vent arrived also, then was taped off and the painting begun…

After a trip to town I returned with floor insulation… Thanks Donnie "dwcardfan" for the product tip…

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.

Stonking??? I like the flip front, another friend of mine out in North Carolina is toying with the idea of doing a 74 that way and after seeing that same truck posted on FB he asked if I had any other pics which I did and sent him already... He's building a 65 as well... I think he may have ideas for that one too…
Here's the other pic I sent him…

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

So yesterday while visiting with a friend at the car show, he asked how the rat project was coming along… I explained that I was at a standstill while working on the 65… Long story short, he's now the owner of the 47 Rat project and I'm the owner of this…

72 LWB 350/TH350 No Power anything, and needing some work, but a running and driving truck...

His plans are to build a Rat Wrecker…
as for the 72… will start a build thread in that area when I figure out what the plans are...

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

Morning Don,

Great move on the trade.

One thing I have always said, is that there is no emotion attached to my toys.

Want them? Swop, trade, pay and they are yours.

I like it so far.

Rat Wrecker sounds like a good thing too.

That looks like a possible quick flip. Or a good weekend hauler.

Re: Donz '65 SWB Stepper Budget Build...

Good swop Don and being a driver it's a win win . I guess you are just going to just flip it . Or are we going to Clem's in it if the stepper isn't finished ?
