Agreed and double sorry for the hijack, but more reason to get back on this killer build! THe E9, man, that is a car I'd give up one of my 510s for. (But even if I gave up all 3,  and my '59, I couldn't afford an E9!)

This is the third support for under the radiator I made. The first was 1/2" tubing and would been fine for keeping the lower valance from flapping in the wind but I decided to go with something that would offer some protection. The second one was with angle iron and looked like it was made by a blacksmith.

C20 Long box - why $1400, nobody wants them

 

I would LOVE to have that one...

 

Had a '65 C10 Custom Cab (283/powergilde) long bed in high school. Been looking for another 64-66 off and on since. Keep passing them up because I want a nice patina. Like the one you have.   B)

Most these trucks around here in that price range are bomb canned primer gray or flat black with a sheet of plywood for a bed floor. I only went to look at it because original paint. Bought it without even starting it because it had the look I wanted and I knew mechanical's would be easy. All gauges, heater, wipers, lights work and bed wood has been re-done. It's a sister to the one I learned to drive in with a 292 and Granny 4spd.

Way more rust and dents than you see here. I got it for the off the farm look which could be said about me too

Tacked lip to valance

Didn't like how the outer openings are so close to ends. Would make wrapping the ends around into the body look all wrong, So more slice and dice

I spend as much time staring at it trying to figure out how to proceed as I do working on it some days

I was talking to my dad the other day about how working on major projects is a lot like working for the DOT building a road.

 

There is a great deal of standing and staring involved in doing it right

Can I get funded by tax dollars?
