Doors and trim

Here we are in the parade. I have done a lot of little things since then, (wiring, tuning, and it has been cold this winter) but you can't tell from the outside. Next post will show some pictures of the box that I have worked on this winter in the cold.

It's been a while, since I last posted. it's not that I havn't spent a lot of time on the project, it's that I havn't taken many pictures, and those that I might have taken wern't big changes anyways.


You can see here though that the body work on the hood and doors is complete and we even got a little paint shot on them a couple of weeks ago.






This is Labor Day weekend, the weekend of the Little Worlds Fair in Kismet Kansas every year.

The big parade is on Monday, and I though since it seems to be running good, and is a complete cab and chassis I would enter it.

First things first though, it needs a bath, and here is the one to give it to it. Kids who go through automatic ones all the time wouldn't know what she's so happy about.










So, After much ado, and many late nights, we finally got the trim painted and put on. it has been a scramble to get it all put together for the parade, late nights trying to get lights to work another rebuilt carb. Then there is the fiasco at the court house that almost makes me ready to send the truck strait to the crushers; They told me that since I had a title and no plate, I couldn't get one, 2 trips and several hours in the court house finally got that solved.





Here Scott is putting on the last piece of trim, I think we are going to make it, entries are only 12 hours away, and we still have big color sanding marks on the fenders.

wow, Do a couple of little touch ups, on the big scratches, and let's get to bed. the big day is tomorrow. we can polish it later. Hope this keeps your intrest alive. I hope to have a box on it by Christmas, I know that dad (the wood worker) is already looking for some maple to put in the floor.
