GBrown 1867 Build

[GBrown1867]

I need to correct my last post. The core support is coming out. One of the problems with being 400 miles away from my build is I am not kept in the loop of everything. Also forgot to add, as far as paint and working on the truck, we all have to remember it has a one piece hood and fiberglass bed sides. So basically the whole thing comes apart a ways.

I've got a 1 piece and bedsides also and yes it's much easier to work on, but I wouldn't send the truck out to paint till the metal work is finished, only cause there's to many chances of it getting ruined, but that's just me

The truck has been at paint this week and I think it was primed last night. Will be nice to see it one solid color again. It will be around 10 months since I rolled it till I get to drive it again.

Also if you look at the first picture, you can see the top of the custom dash for where the second nav will be mounted.

Ten months wait
If you order build truck from ford its sometimes halve that

And look what you get for double that time

Also what is 10 months versus a lifetime..
That because of propper precautions you atleast have to spent

Awsume build to see take shape
Hat of to you and the builders

So what's the word, will the beast be ready for next weeks
Black Ops run ?

It's out of paint. Going to stereo on Monday. Then to outlaw the middle of the week, interior next week and back for final assembly. I should have pics Monday of the paint. It was in the booth on Friday when they were there.

Sounds like it's going to be a little tight for Black Ops, O well maybe better not to be the first trip in the dark ! plus it will just make El Bandito that more of Epic run

today replacing the spindles hopefully the last time ! waited for 6 months for the Rogue Racing Spindles. They look like they may do the trick ( just got to stop pushing so hard ) Never going to happen !

 

[GBrown1867]

They look like a good product. Hopefully they work our good for you. I am not making the black ops. I am being reassigned from the 12 hr shifts back to 5-8. Need to save my vacation time for when I have my truck. It will be done for the El Bandito 500 and I am hoping to get down a couple of weeks before to test and tune.
When it's finished, Matt is also going commute in it for a few weeks so we can put some miles on it.

Glad to see the progress continue. Looking forward to seeing it soon and running around with you again in Mexico. You are a good sport, letting Matt "airtime" Richards break it in for you LOL.
