    Believe it or not, that has been a common way to do it for a good while. :jumpin:

    So I stuffed and stuffed and stuffed, after about an hour I got it all shoved down in between the box and the cab. Sprayed some more rubberized coating on it and later on in the week, will apply some liquid rubber to it as well. Hopefully the boot will be here tomorrow and I can get that...

    Next I resprayed the foam with a few more coats of rubber. While that was drying, I cut out the back cab wall. Since the window opening was higher than the reinforcement bar below the box window, I had to add a filler panel in the upper cab window opening. Just used some of the holes from the...

    Man am I tired. Nothing like trying to wrestle a 6" thick foam mattress into a 4" space. Story and pics to follow. Since I'm waiting on some positive cash flow, the floor trim out and the master cylinder swap projects are on hold. But I did get the twin foam mattress that I wanted for the...

    Finally got my finish floor down today. Not trimmed out yet, but I'm happy with how it looks.

    Picked up my vinyl flooring today. Paid more than I wanted to, was hoping for a cheap piece of remnant, but oh well.

    Mid week update, ordered and received an axle set of new brake shoes, will be used on the front. Front shoes now are slightly contaminated, prefer good clean shoes. Talked to my upholstery guy today, says this canvas will work fine. Measured and cut the foam for the mattress/seat cushions...

    Thanks AA, I don't get nearly as much done in a day as I used to or would like. Old age has a way of slowing a body down. Yes, hex heads with a flange. I used a countersink bit and set the screw so it was below the surface everywhere they are in an exposed floor area. I think that by doing...

    Thanks turnkey. Yes it has been a lot of work, and will be for awhile. But lack of funds dictate I do it all myself in my back yard. It can be done, but takes time.

    Thanks KM. No guarantee's on my engine condition. I'm still looking for a very low cost RV bathtub, 36" x 24", seat type, R drain, just in case one floats by!

    Got several small jobs done today. Figured with the new tires I'd better start covering them up from the sun, so I set up some tarps to shade them. Also finally got around to countersinking the floor screws per RAYZER. He said, and I agree that the screw heads would push up the vinyl floor...

    Was out with family most of today, but did get a little project done. Mounted some small tie down D rings on the fenders just in case I want to secure something there. I may make a fuel/water can rack for each side so these can be a way to secure them. Can get 4 cans on the left side and 3 on...

    Thanks AA. I believe they are real bricks, the City renovated downtown a couple of years ago. No grove, just a double line of white bricks for the center line.
