Re: 1968 Dodge D200 Tow rig/Daily driver Project *PICS Updated)
Tapatalk is acting up on me and will let me look at any thread except one i have started. As soon as it is fixed ill post a few pictures.
-All of the 4th gen factory seat belts are mounted front and rear
-Rear seat mounted
-Tail lights came in and mocking up for them
-Bed floor is being made. (local guy fell through after 2 months of waiting, new floor will be here in 3 weeks)
-This truck has some of the biggest Factory Booger welds that ive ever seen. Working on grinding those down and getting the inside cab and door openings ready for paint.
- Inside cab and door openings will get one more final coat of primer tomorrow and one more final sanding next week and will be ready to paint.
-Next week doors will go back on and will start the process of flat blocking and priming the outside 8-10 more times.
Still a long ways a way and Collision work has been crazy busy ( Thank the Good Lord Above) so not a ton of free time to work on it. Right now, working on it in between collisions. Mainly just a lot of sand paper and a lot of dust dealing with fixing all of the factory imperfections. Eventually just going to have to draw the line somewhere and live with it. I literally could work for a year fixing factory seams and welds to make them look nicer.
It is still moving forward which is the main thing for a project this size.
-Still have to relocate the batteries, transmission cooler, and AC condenser under the cab.
-Wiring for power windows/locks, headlights, marker lights, tail lights
-Bed Floor when it comes in
Once the body is ready for paint i will either have to find someone or figure out installing the Superduty front axle/steering and coilover suspension up front. Not a suspension guy but may can figure it out with a little help.
