I cant believe how much I got done in the last few daze. The left mid section at the seat belt mount and the floor pan are all in, and ALMOST done being welded in!
What is left at this time:
- 1 small area needs cutting out and patching in the bed
- 2 real small areas need patching under driver's seat
- Patch at driver's kick panel
- Patch at passenger kick panel
- Huge devoid at passenger rocker panel needs creative patching, or a patch panel from LMC or JCW.
Once the above issues are resolved, I can paint the bed, sidewalls and floorboard, install all seats and seat belts and
DRIVE IT!
All other issues and repairs are EXTERNAL and mostly cosmetic.
- Pull out dent on driver's side
- Replace rear windows with $40 steal I got off a neighbor, these have SLIDING WINDOWS
- Raised steering arm to fix bump-steer
- 4 new shoes, current 31's are dry rotted
- Fill in holes where panels were taken off
- Finish painting rest of vehicle "light earth brown"
I can smell success, and cant wait!
Ill be posting more soon, Im still shooting video for you ladies.
Cheers,
Andrew

It has been UNGODLY hot the last few daze, havent gotten anything done to her, but it should cool off here soon and I can get back to throwing sparks.
Im 99% finished on the driver's side mid section, and not a hell of a lot left after that.
I cant wait until I have paint inside and seats bolted back down, at least then I can drive her!
I found today a set of 4 decent 33's for $125 on craigslist, since the 31's on her now are not hardly holding air (dry rotted), anything else will be good! And Im so broke I cant pay attention, so the price is right!
After the inside is all finished, I can focus on the outside, that should go pretty quick...
Be back soon!
