    Seams that need sealed?

    I got the SEM 2k seam sealer (its DTM). Used it before on the cab's interior. I have some high build 2k primer to (eventually) shoot - my guess is that should hide alot of the spot welds. Cant get over how poorly aligned every individual panel is.

    Seams that need sealed?

    I need some advice here. Its been decades since I last painted a car or did any kind of extensive bodywork, plus I'm semi-retarded so this is either a big deal or nothing at all. I'm preparing to primer my cab again after all the bodywork, bondo, etc. Noticed the seam sealer on both door...

    What new tools have you got lately?

    Not sure if this counts, but I've been in need of some tool drawers (for shtuff like taps, thread chasers, specialty sets, etc). Other than marketplace drawer slides and Dollar Tree pulls, this was made from 100% scraps. My budget was "as close to free as possible". Norm Abrams wont feel...

    1981-87 Chrome body side molding

    They do and it works very well. It also (easily) removes pinstripes.

    Bare Standard Cab Actual Weight

    300 was the number I had heard before. I watched 2 guys on a YT vid (not real big guys either) pick one up and handle it pretty well. It needed floors so was welded up with all the cross support bars - they used them to hold onto it and said it took them about 20 min to set the cab on and get...

    Bare Standard Cab Actual Weight

    I wonder how much stress the latch bolts or the door hinge bolts could take? Would be easy to make something to hold on to bolted there but I worry about tweaking the metal.

    Bare Standard Cab Actual Weight

    Just wondering if anyone ever scrapped a bare cab and in doing so, found out how much it weighed? My cab is stripped - no doors, interior, glass - nothing. Nak-id. If Ohiostan ever decides which month it wants to be, I will have it paint shortly and will need to set it back on the frame. Was...
