It’s the little details. NOS fender welting.

Thank you!

I bought Gillespie from Rapco, 2 gallons of red oxide primer and 4 gallons of 24087. Reduced 4:1 with Sunnyside lacquer thinner and some Majic hardener from Tractor Supply. The paint is pretty affordable and shoots really easy. The hardener gives it a little more shine than it is supposed to...

Now the fun begins! I’ve gotta put this thing back together.

Successful day. Working with Delta Team Decals paint masks. Really coming together now!

Those bearings are in hard shape. You’re doing impressive work!

This is really an enjoyable build to watch, great work!

Yeah, I keep forgetting it should be a pretty crappy paint job! I draw the line at reducing the paint with gasoline though!

Busy Sunday, 2 coats of 24087, finish coat tomorrow.

Thank you! It really has been a fun project and I appreciate all the encouragement.

Agreed! I could measure the bumper paint thickness with a ruler!

We’re going in the other direction finally. Took advantage of some nice weather.

I can’t wait to see this all back together, great job!

Look in the Deuce TMs. There is a post for air pack rebuild manual.

Not bad. Big Mike has parts kits and cans.

Gauge panel done! Custom decals for the lettering, polished the gauge faces as best I could, new tach sticker, new ground harness. I’m happy with it.

Got a base coat of POR15 on the bed today. Weather is getting better!

There was a LOT of paint on that bumper!

Busy day. Getting closer to paint! Worked on cab prep today. Rapco paint showed up this week as well as a bunch of seals from Erik’s. Installed Big Mike’s FDC bypass as well.

Thank you sir! I miss driving the dang thing!
