Finally got the cargo bed reinstalled on the chassis. Required a little tweaking but not too bad. Also, installed the tailgate, fuel filler neck and fire extinguisher. Engine running fine but do need to address a soft brake pedal. Vacuum wipers work great. Some pics:

Todays work included: Installed the cargo bed wood and strips and got it all adjusted for installation on the chassis. Also fired up the engine to test all the gauges, lights, etc. Just realized I forgot to test the wiper motors. Fabricated a hold down assembly for the battery and drilled...

Looking great Dave. I don't know, it is just missing something. Can't quite put my finger on it. Oh! Wait a minute....PAINT :razz::razz::razz:

Okay, maybe I can have my Ben Hur trailer behind it. Hope the old WC can make it that far. :shock:

Don't know but the original number begins with a "T"

Finished the 4th coat of paint on the floor boards and primed and painted the Lazyback support arms. Hope to install the bed board and stips Sunday and then my friend with a hoist truck with help with the install on the chassis. :)

I see you have a good system to inventory and store all those parts you removed from the K-18. :recovry4x4:

Hoped to get the first coat of OD on the bed wood today but 20 mph winds shelved that plan. Supposed to be 5-10 mph tomorrow. I did install the King Bee mirror arm and mirror and the Corcoran-Brown relectors on the bed corners. I also milled the wood lazyback support arms. More tomorrow.

Boy, with the trailer that was actually a fair price. However, there are always more fish in the sea. Plus, you won't want two identical vehicles and trailers sitting in the compound would you?

Boy, I would love to sneak in at night a apply a quick coat of OD. Then........it would be perfect. :beer:

Ooh!!! Were can I get some of that? Oh wait, too late. :lol:

I knew the Bank of PB would come through as always. :grd:

Good idea Chief.

Praise to the wood. I am glad you will not be "busting your balls" going forward. :grin:

Outstanding Commander. Could you take a picture of one of the planks from an endgrain view. It looks like they were made using 1 to 2" strips of redwood. Very nice work. [thumbzup]

Well Zout, I guess "no more jokes" I think we poked a sleeping bear.... :papabear:

Unfortunately, I have been out of internet access for 4 days and have some catching up to do. So my observations are: 1. Based on the number of cans from your sponsor you must be using it for paint reducer. No one could drink that much. :shock: 2. The paintwork is just superb but I kinda...

Not to mention the mouth ulcers. :lol:
