A '69 Build... "Brought to you by Don Juan Productions" Full index added to page #1

Welcome back Mike!
The trans tunnel shifter plate is awesome...If you don't mind me copying it, I-need to put that on my never ending list. If you do mind, then I’ll just live with my hack.

Dude, you can copy whatever in the hell you want off of this. It’s a truck, not intellectual property. Let me know if I can help.

 

[NorCal69]

Hey Zim, who's the new guy?

Some people call me, Daddy. Go ahead and see how it rolls off your tongue. You’ll probably like it.

 

[Bent77]

Chimp daddy?

 

[NorCal69]

Chimp daddy?

Just as long as it has Daddy in it, I’m cool. Lol

How about a pic dump...

















Thanks Paul for the help on sealing and other dumb questions I asked help with on these. I appreciate it!

And the other fender hacking...

And this morning I finally got to install those billet badges I had made some years back. Pretty awesome

 

[Bent77]

Those are really going to pop against that orange paint

Hey Zim, who's the new guy?

you should know by know you can’t just post the beginning and end shot. There’s gotta be at least one mid-progress picture.

looks like really good work!

lol...they are C20 fenders so I had to drill a couple of holes for the 496 badge and had to fill two holes and drill one for the K5 badge. I was pleasantly surprised that I could use the two main holes for that badge. Took all of the guess work out of it

I thought CK5 was an intellectual free zone....I mean, intellectual property free zone.

i was talking about opening up the fender arch.

The beginning of day one....

Taking the week off and doing a Blazer thrash session for the next 7 days. Hopefully dropping the pig off at the painters next Monday.

 

[76zimmer]

Go Mikey go!

 

[NorCal69]

Go Mikey go!

Complete shitshow so far trying to do all of this in this little overpacked garage. Good times. Lol

Hard to sand those panels rolling over that Blue Sharpe.

 

[NorCal69]

Morning kids...


Still pushing forward pretty hard over here trying to get this to the paint booth ASAP.

Yesterday I think I finished the last bit of big fab on the entire blazer. After I have no clue how many skinny wheels, Roloc disks, rolls of wire, tanks of gas, flap disks, sticks of tube, plates of steel, cases of beer..... I’m finally done with the fab.

Most of the rig is in high build 2k at this point. Now that the hood is finished (frenched in for the rear cage bar) I can start working on that while my son starts sanding today.

Tintable Raptor liner came in this week. Hopefully get the underside of the tub done before Monday.

[Bent77]

Woot!!

 

[NorCal69]

Very cool day not seeing it as a green, black, and rust colored blob for the first time. Pretty excited.

ps... with all of your fabbed parts and crap you’ve done, if you want to hit BB22, you should start painting yours by noon today. It’s a long road. Lol
