had some blast time today . ran out of sand and got ran on twice. but had a good day

thats a good looking truck, are the crosses painted or vinyl ?

i removed the rest of the interior,so I could blast all the rust , got most of it done before the rain came. I found a paper wrapped around the steering column,it was some kind of data sheet from when the truck was built, but it was so brittle and there wasnt enought left to get any info off of...

Thanks for the info. that gives me a couple of days to get the rest finished , still I have been thinking about splitting the cab from the back section to replace the welt, sandwich between them.

Check out the tread : Retired in Florida I have been posting pics there

I have to re-attach the part over the cab on my ambulance back to the cab and back portion. What kind of sealer / caulk should be use ? I went to West Marine, and Home Depot but came home empty handed , I must have read every tube in there but just got more confused . Any ideas will be helpful

I have been working on the part over the cab this week in the shop.I just have to figure out what sealer I will need to reattach it to the cab and body . There are still some little dent in it but its not bad , I will have to get it out in the sun to check it out better. but I'm doing everthing...

I got a chance to work on the ambulance a little bit this week. The summer rains are here , so its tuff to do anything from sandblasting to painting with the high humidity. I had removed the windshield to see how bad the rust is ,and its not to bad, also removed the dash, will get everthing out...

I started on Friday to get some more done on the ambulance, but rainy season finaly got here, so I had to work between rain clouds. i was at least able to get the front part over the cab off,with some help from the neighbor. i found the remains of a mouse nest ,and alot of nasty insulation...

do you have any photos of it? I was at Tyndall AFB, we had a Jeep , for inflight emergencies. Saw it every time we had to go out on the Flight line and sit for an incoming inflight emergency, And i never took a picture of it. I was a SP , and maybe took 6 pictures at work . Have alot from the...

I did use a heat gun. the vinyl came off easy , its the glue thats the tuff part, lacquer thinner does work , just takes time .

and those front fenders and inner fender wells are unique to those Ambulances. The ones I've seen have the D70 closed knuckle and 4 sp trans. I have a surgical light in the classifieds. I think the "73" have very aggressive look to them , there is alot of room in the engine compartment . if you...
