[79chevy39.5's]

christmas got me a brand new irok so now 2 rims and fancy lug nuts and im ready to roll

[79chevy39.5's]

rims were ordered so now im waiting on them to get here
now im just doing body work and i should be ready for a trip

[79chevy39.5's]

yesterday went and picked up couple things
filler necks, passenger side gas door (so i can use both tanks), headlight bezels (to be destroyed at a later date)

so will be workin on the truck in the mornin doing a couple things like the filler necks, and welding in the gas door.........bondo work if it doesnt rain and drys up some

and if the weather blows ill just cut up a door

[79chevy39.5's]

been pluggin away night and day now the bed is now getting sanded to be painted
on the bed so far I have cut 16" out and added a passenger fuel door
I finaly cut a driver side door so Ill have 2 half doors instead of one tube and one half door
the welded spiders are in
so while im waiting on my wheels and fancy lug nuts that should be here wed Im doing all the sanding/paint prep for me to get the truck all one color (well actualy 2) instead of the eleventybillion it is right now

[colemancooler]

[79chevy39.5's]

thanks coleman

ive been usin a disposable so i can send pictures to some buddies that dont have computers and ill get it developed tonight so maybe pics tonight or tomarrow

[79chevy39.5's]

ok so since i live in smalltown usa the pictures have to be sent out so i wont have em for a couple days but lugnuts come wed and rims by the end of the week so ill have my truck sittin on the iroks all the way around good enough to take er for a spin.........then get it registered and what not since the tabs just went bad last monthand its still under WA plates

[79chevy39.5's]

ok gents here we go
new gas door

finaly got a top plate on passenger half door

driver door just needs 2 more plates and itll be rockin

picked theses up for the snow/rain/what ever else we get

and just waitin for my wheels and lugnuts

[79chevy39.5's]

got the 2 plates cut for the driver door now just need one more (to fill a gap at the bottom) and finish weld them up then its sanding sanding sanding

also may be doing a guys 76 truck with the 52 front springs and 63's in the back and may put my 56's in the back at the same time to soften things up

[79chevy39.5's]

been sanding sanding sanding got everything but the cab sanded down just needs one more go over with 320 then its time for primer but on a side note the 4 spd swap gave me alot more instant power

[79chevy39.5's]

got my lugnuts and wheels will be here anytime now
highsteer arms should be gettin sent out in a few days (once my money gets there)

but once my wheels get here ill squirt my truck with primer and get it lisenced

just took it up the road but still did awsome

[79chevy39.5's]

ok back together in the daylight with some poser shots (which actualy helped because they showed me i need to box the frame which i will be doing to the back when i have the bed off this week for primer/paint)

[Roman]

why is it you need to box the frame?

[Paul]

Looks really nice. I dig the shortened long bed.

[79chevy39.5's]

i want to box it because it get the standard chevy frame flex and i dont like it once the frame gets boxed it gets of the flex

[Beep Beep]

Looking good!

[79chevy39.5's]
