I do not use any power tools to run them up to snug, I think the friction heats and affects the nylon and makes them less resistant to staying in place once torqued. JMO scrump

Glueing pins for the headliner. Do you have any of the stick on sound dead mat? Even a small square will make a big difference in the sound. If you had the engine at TDC of the compression stroke before you took out the old one and did not move the crank or cam putting in the new one you...

That looks like if you were to turn the crank counterclockwise just a couple of degrees it would line up both dots with the centerline of the crank and cam? Or am I seeing it wrong?

A little crazy but tossing it out there anyway, how about a 26 inch aluminum bike rim blank to start. Fat tire might get you in the ballpark.

Wow, 1 hour, 46 minutes. Very impressive.

You noticed a few voids that would leak. Are you going to test for leaks prior to capping the lower weld using water on the inside to see if it leaks out and where? Or is there a sealer being applied after?

Wall could have the green and red Coca-Cola advert painted on then aged. It would fit the period and break up the length. The place is really coming along. Any feedback, good or bad from the locals yet? Scrump

The moldings look great. Car is going to be one sweet ride. But I need to ask what is that very large round item on the other side of it. World's largest E-stop button?

Hah! the HAMB journal and this forum are both under Atomic (Ryan)

Looking sweet! We need a full 3/4 view now or are you saving that for full primer?

Wow, looking sharp, one of my favorite years. My shop teacher had a long bed in 4wd, black trimmed in white.

I know where that last pic was taken. Great location, great drive down there! my son is in school just south of Portland.

Congrats on the new shop! Truck is looking good too.

Ok I feel better. Thank you, but this will require regular check in's Dr. The truck looks sweet!

I'm so looking forward to an update on this project. I think I am getting DT's!
