Mike...its all in appreciation for what you do every year busting your arse in the MKT assisting Mike. You both work your butts off so others can be fed and have a great time. It will give you something to enjoy even more...thank you for your kind comments. Means more to me when you see it the...

You should read the thread Papabear posted. Suggesting a body off resto will show you why that not a good idea. Shows what is involved in rebuilding the engine etc. Hope you realize how RARE that truck is....Papabears thread will also reveal this with a news paper article back to 1942. You have...

Mike...I'm a walking zombie. Monday at the doctors my blood pressure was bumping 200/113. That is of course with State 4 kidney issues. NEVER GIVE UP and work accordingly.

actually I painted all the bulbs in the tai lights and turn signals so Mike can rum back home in blackout conditions...don't tell him.

Wet look/glossy is right after shooting it to show Mike I was on my schedule. Flat look is almost dry to get Mike even more excited. Drivers seat to re-install after repair to a small hole in the floor..then repair the passenger side floor. Will get all the lights put back in today and start...

41 GMC welcome. If you search through in the main forum under WC I believe you will see another K18C owned by Papabear here that he resurrected back to life after sitting in a field 40 years plus. All the pictures are there to check it out. He also has a lot of the radio gear as well aside from...

Anyone else think it's time for an avatar change???

320 sand in the morning...wipe down then OD goes on. Then onto black.

Absolutely looking forward to that project IFS. Think we already know what we can produce....GEM.

Overall first sanding nearly done...then primer and re-sand and the way it looks now with all my Dr. Appointments out of they way this week...by the weekend all but black could be in paint. Let's see how this works out.

Dang Mike....and I was hoping to do my tale tell job of painting the tires as well and you go screw up that plan. Nice looking rubbers tho. I will send Mike a few pictures if he wants to post them up.

Yup...shield stays Kenny. Well it's CARC so I use 180 to chop down the rock hard surface...re-sand by block in 320. Use prep solvent to clean...prime THEN 320 again by block. GET any last surface stuff fixed then go paint.

Jim.....Salute Sir....mighty fine workmanship.

T....sanding on the top getting as many imperfections out of it. If ya look back at the truck I did for Swiss...same color. Mike had the paint delivered to the house and it arrived yesterday. Will probably prime in sections to make sure my low attention span can make sure the surface is the...

I need like a 100 pack of rubber condems....one for each of my long fingers. Keeps my prissy girly hands clean.

Did get the drivers side rocker panel in...sent the owner pics just to keep him updated as always. Started removing lights @mirrors to get them out of the way for sanding...ripping out rubber trim as well as Mike bought a box load of rubbers (look like melted down condems...not with the ribs...

Patience ---- figured I might as well change out the avatar as well to keep you looking this way. Got started nipping out the corroded drivers side rocker panel to see how much repair I had to do while replacing it - have not removed the spot welds yet- that will be todays thing to do - then...

Got everything moved around in the garage so that the bike is very well protected...covered up like a piggy (IT'S A HOG..GET IT) in a blanket. Opened up Mike's Christmas box of parts and started arranging them...he bought a ton of stuff. See if I can arrange that puzzle box.

Congratulations to everyone on the poll.

Mike delivered the project today and was kind enough to buy me lunch. Will get started on the body work with replacement of a rotted out panel and partial floorpan. At least this will fit in the garage easier than Swiss's truck ... huge beast. Will get some start pictures up and pics as usual...
