roflNA - but ya gotta admit it was FUNNY AS CHIT to try to pull it on ya again rofl Anyhow now that I am done screwing around for a couple seconds - got the cab windows tore down and a lot easier than the side glass - I have ONE good piece to get a sample cutting from and I have it loaded up...

Holy Moley PB - I had a call from Drew my house alarm and garage alarms were going off so I had a couple minutes before I could skip out of work to head home - got home and cops all over the place along with your Sheriff buddy - someone must have bumped the garage door stripping your K-18 down...

Trying to work out with my vendor getting the radiator done - also reason its not pulled yet and the fuel tank I can send to the same vendor to have that cleaned and epoxy coated as well - hang tight. Tin PM'd me about some possible lights - I need to send him a pic of them tonight when I get...

Tin - lights mount into the back wall at the bottom - hole on right & left bottom. The L brackets are inside and attached to the back channel I replaced - then the lights protrude and nearly flush with the back wall (kinda like how a jeep light mounts on the back). Try to get started on the cab...

While you tac and stitch weld in a replacement - you can use a heat sink welder product to surround the area so the heat does not make things worse or distort surrounding metalwork -just a thought. Do not be in a hurry tacking and stitch welding - take your time and make sure stuff is cooling...

Its a three stall garage - who said anythign about no room or time ????? Bring that baby on - room for a TANK as well. Pump head ordered this morning and plenty to do till it is here and mounted.

I HATE WOOD - thus endith the lesson. Tin - the blackout lights are mounted to the top of the headlights - only one survived it time in this world - pics of the tail lights were many posts in the past on this thread and we still need a set of WW2 tail lights DONATED to the cause. New pump for...

NO reason to get off point for the sake of the OP. Sealing the weld can be done by 2K bare metal primer and do not put POR on it nor etching primer. This process will outlive almost all of us if done right. The OP can fix this and run and have fun with his CUCV and be proud of it. I salute the...

Tin - you were probably around when rubber was invented Anyhow - cool pics PB early stages of the K-18 and history is a GOOD thing - reminds of where we need to be at times in life. Got the sides and nose all tacked off - wiped it down a couple times and then blew it off and went to town on...

Thanks Csm - I am sure if the OP can patch in an underlaying piece of metal and get it secured in place with a good weld CUCV is offering up it will work fine - if I were to do it it would be the same process instead of throwing in the towel. But it does have to be properly done and not just...

AHHHH - your grille brush guard is already in the drawing stage from all the photo's - measurements by looking at them pictures and laying it out on the K18 C - just hang onto your britches there IFS - your shock and awe is not over :clinto:

By the way and seeing some are uninformed: During crash circumstances, windshields also play a vital role in the structural integrity of the vehicle. In front-end crashes the windshield provides stiffness and rigidity, which helps keep the car from crushing on impact, and protects the bodies of...

4 springs for the regulators arrived yesterday - other 4 are back ordered and will ship when they come in. Get these rear windows set aside till the felt inner channel seals arrive. Get onto the box wiping it down and see about getting some final coats of paint on it. Couple pieces in the cab...

Duh - beg your pardon: Why your windshield is important to the structural integrity of a car - FMVSS ... Collision ... If the rusted section is wide enough - you could insert a repair section to the inside - form it first and tack it in - then do a full stitch weld - then use a product like...

Windshields are a structural part of the body - integrity strength. I am surprised he installed one after the old was out - never really know till the old is out anyhow. To fix it right - get a doner truck from the junk yard and tack in and get a new section in there properly. Bondo - TIger...

Got a bunch o stuff on my mind so here are just pics from when I got home -

One of my sisters has a glass fettish - she beat you to it PB

The metal channel the seal itself fits into were all made from scratch. The seal that fits inside this channel was procured from Restoration Services out of PA. You can download their catalog on line and they have GOBS of stuff. Another place is called Steele and they sure like the price of...

First set of glass (3) all trimmed off and tapped off for paint - second set of 3 assembled and let dry 24 hrs before attacking them - then get them all into paint. Pile of rubble is just from the 6 pieces of glass - anyone want to BID per pound for a jar of K18 C - will send a jar as a...
