Whats up people,
well i been working on the cab more.I sent out the dash to have some holes filled and have that as well as the door hinges and some other pieces powdercoated. I worked on the cab this past week and got the bottom all sanded and herculined and i took it off the saw horses and got it bolted down today for the last time.I also purchased a set of 84-88 corvette black leather seats for it and will sell the other beretta seats soon. Here are some pics of the bottom and the cab going on for the last time..
thanks
pat

Sooner or later dusty you`ll be doing the same as vile and myself as well the rest of us here are doing. I am getting real tempted to find another project soon. I`m going to use the herculiner i got and do the inside of the rear stepside inner fenders and possibly the inner fenders where the tires are.This stuff rocks, im on my 2nd gallon kit i purchased.After using the kit on my 01 ram and the abuse it took with yard materials i was convinced this stuff is good so if i get what i want next for ap roject the entire mottom side will be done with this stuff..

thanks
pat
p.s. Next is to do the interior floor and the inner firewall before i weld the dash back in...

Its a great feeling when you start to put stuff back where it belongs. It will really start to come together now. I cant wait to see more.

Well everyone,
today i didnt think i could do it BUT I DID i got the rollpan mocked up with the taillights in as i wanted and man there gonna look wicked once done.... Here is a pic of what 2 1/2 hours of work does and 5 cutoff wheels and a die grinder does for you...




I`m gonna work on it more this friday as i`m gonna chill for the rest of the week.

Hopefully this is a new trend of rollpans for stepsides for taillights.I just gotta modify a slot now above the licence plate light for the B/U light..

It's all down hill from here Pat! That's gotta be a great feeling to start putting things back together. Look like it's all going well.

P.S. I just noticed that the wheels on your "ka" are color matched. Looks good!
