more body done today

Postby jbgroby on Sun Apr 19, 2009 7:46 pm

I got some more body work done today, we figure about another 6-12 hours should have her finished, The last 18 pictures inb the album are the new ones. Jesse really knows ow to make a slide hammer work and when he shrinks metal I should video it. It's funny that until you see it done it seems REAL complicated, I'm sure it is but I gotta learn sometime, enjoy.

I figure about another month (read 12 or so hours) We work on it about every 2 weeks for most of a day, Sat or Sun. The guys have everyo ther weekend off. AND they work, no break, no BS, no stops, just work. They are very trust worthly example I went shopping with the wife to buy more metal to metal filler and left them at my place. for over an hour.

duh! I hope to have her painted by CTC in October. All the mechanicals are done, just need to get the cab in place so with can bolt up the rest of the truck. Were going to try and paint it ourselves.
