Working on the brake lines as a side project right now. Need a couple more adaptor fittings for the Master cylinder yet.
Decided that since the weather was so nice this week that I would finish the sandblasting on the cab. While I was working on that this morning, Van Aldershof showed up with a steering column that he got this morning at Mikes Junk yard. It's out of a GMC and has all the tilt, turn signals and ignition in it. There's no key for it so Van will pop the old one out and put in a new one.
After I mock it up in the truck Van will make a nice polished aluminun column drop for it. Should turn out better than what I was expecting to put in. His help is always appreciated.
The cab blasting is done so now on with the repairs.I have a small section to weld in on the left rear and some minor dents to pound out. Decided to weld up some of the holes in the firewall to give it a cleaner look. Then the body filler starts.
I'm also going to put the old bench seat back in temporarily to do the mockup on the steering column.
