Has anyone tried this? Looks very cool. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N-cv3R4fWZc&feature=related And pretty affordable: http://www.aluminumrepair.com/shopping/shopdisplayproducts.asp?id=10&cat=HTS-2000 -Andrew

what steering box is that, anyway? I'm sorry if I missed it...

Good fab work!

Looks great! Don't bondo anything! :D I like the color scheme as it is :)

Wow Great build, man. I've always liked how you've incorporated your aircraft influence into it. (I vaguely remember you saying you had your A & P?) With all of the goo-goo-ga-gaa stuff out of the way about the Hemi build and stuff, I wanted to chime in on these clamps: My father and I were...

Cool bananas

Awesome, Keith! Looks like fun!

Looks great man! Be sure to keep the guys updated on OldIHC! Keep it up!

Thanks for the pics. Really likin the rat trucks!

Also pictured are the hubs. Everything feels tight when steering around the yard and stuff.. but I guess I'll have to wait and see how they look as I disassemble them. Any tips with dealing with hubs I should know about? -Andrew

Still have more cleaning to do: This part is looking good though:

Heres some better pictures of the truck.

Awesome man. I think the seatbelt-gate latches are my favorite part so far :D Keep it up! I look forward to more progression pics!

Cool! You mentioned shortening the frame... Are you planning on Z'ing it down?

And as you can plainly see I got most of the frame done. What you can't see is that I also sprayed most of the bottom of the cab and those frame rails too. So it's lookin pretty good right now. I plan to pull the motor out (probably next week) and finish all of the priming and start on the...

Got the rest of the cab primed. Got some more sanding to do on some some areas, but it's close. It's NOT going to be flawless (I want to DRIVE this thing.) and I'm not fixing even 1 dent. I think it's gonna add some character. And I'm sorry in advance for these pictures. My cell phone has a...

Indeed! I can't beleve all I did was sand it and spray it and its that straight! Thats why I didn't plan to rat it out...

pulled the valve cover. not too bad for not running since '93 I think got out the old chisel and scrapers and wire wheel and did everything forward of the firewall: boy this stuff was on there... So now I'm just chugging along. I should be driving this bad boy soon. Got a vacation to pay...

Okay fast forward... sorry I've been posting over on oldihc.org and forgot to update this thread! D'oh! Got the front end off and stripped and the rear has been cleaned and primed. (and obviously got it in the shop now so I don't have to rely on daylight and fair weather to work on it! yay)

LOVE the build, man! Haven't checked it in a while and noticed all of the great frame work that was done since I last looked! WOW. I look forward to more updates! Must be tuff, though. Did I hear you say you have a 45 mile (each way!?) commute!? Geebus. The job must be worth it :) Anyway...
