[reom34]

You make it look like it came right out of the factory.

That is one heck of a job you are doing, Reo. Looks incredible!

 

[Manstein]

Awesome job! But even better, awesome shop space!

 

[reom34]

Thanks boys

Looks great. What is that tank on the drivers side of the firewall? Neither of my two Gassers has that. Matter of fact, my regulator "bread box" is mounted about there on both trucks.

Thanks.

Time ago my truck was rebuilt for spanish army and they changed the engine for a diesel.The big tank is for radiator water and the small thank is for gas oil, for easy start.Now all will be change again for original parts.

 

[reom34]

The black tank in the right side is for hydraulik steering.

 

[Barrman]

OHHH, power steering. Are you keeping that?

 

[pa.rich]

Thats going to be a sweet truck.

 

[rdixiemiller]

He's doing a great job isn't he! That is going to be one sweet M34 when he is done.

 

[reom34]

And all with your help.THANKS A LOT ROBERT

 

[rdixiemiller]

De nada amigo.
I helped him get a NOS distributor for his truck, they seem to be scarce in the Canary Islands. The postage to Spain was more than I paid for a brand new dist. assy. though!

Wow, going all out in that restoration! Looking great, can't wait to see her all done....

What paint are you using?

 

[reom34]

Here you are some pics after months waiting for paint the cab.

 

[DanMartin]

Outstanding as always...

 

[Barrman]

Looks good. I need to tell you that all that paint on exhaust manifold is going to be up in smoke the first time you drive a mile or so. I had high temp paint on mine and it lasted through a lot of idling around running. Not so much left after the first run down the road. Now that I have 100 miles or so on mine, the manifold is a clay red.

What did you do to the steering column to get the u-joint in there?

 

[reom34]

It was my mistake to paint this piece.
the u-joint is part of power steering.If you want I can take more pics for you.
thanks

Very Very nice and neat that`s the way it`s supose to be done. Can I have your shop? The back yard isn`t a real great place to work.
