What have you done to your square lately??

@bucket I was just shocked that someone would spend that much on bondo

The AMD fender fits and lines up very nicely however they need to add the little tabs to their shims the little squares are a PITA.

So useless info from this (me) old timer. The fender washers on the first squares, 1973, were "U" shaped with no tab. Following year, "1974" the "U" shaped washers had the tab. Much easier to deal with, as you could tape 2 or 3 together for a test fit. Slide them out and add or subtract as needed.

I once saw an '83 Trans Am in the junkyard that someone tried to make look like the Batmobile. It was poorly done (of course) long ago and the bondo was cracking off of rusty metal all over. The mud was 1" thick in a lot of areas. There must have been at least 10 gallons just in the rear of the car.

Bought a 1977 one yesterday needs a lot of work besides most body work, just needs floors in that department. No engine either or drive shafts or interior

Can is on the frame…. I repeat CAB IS ON THE FRAME. Been way too long for this but getting closer. Got some Durango bucket seats mocked up. Working on getting cab wiring and steering column back in.

Been a few weekends preparing the bottom of the cab, filling pin holes with weld, knocking as many dings flats as possible and finally forcing self etching primer into the seams before sealer went on, polishing off Easter weekend with a free junkyard cut out seatbelt nut and getting it welded in.

Started to dig out vehicles from the foot of snow that got dumped on us

Rebuilt vent window. One down one to go. Was a little nervous about this but went much easier than I thought. Went with precision seals. Completely disassembled, removed vent glass from frame and into the blast cabinet they went after blasting put them in etching primer then semi gloss black. Installing the new seal was a little tedious but as I said went well. Here are a few pics of the process.

And a few more pics

That's on the wish list here. Glad it's that easy. Thanks for showing us all that.

Took the quadrajet back off again.. for I think the 5th time in the last 6 months.

I had a 69 C10 once upon a time that sat weird, and launched weird, no matter what I did, new springs, swapped side to side, measured to death...

There was 34 lbs of bondo on the drivers quarter

Bring in a junk & take out another. Spring cleaning time again.

Put new wiper blades on today. I got the correct size OE(proper needle fitting from Advance...they happen to be Rain Ex.) Slightly longer blades than what was on the truck when purchased.

Now I need to get the drivers side tube from the arm re-attached to the wiper blade for windshield cleaning spritz's.

...Also, during install, I discovered that my palm sized flat head screw driver was perfect for removing the blade from the arm without removing the arm completely, or damaging the paint on the hood or cowl.
