1973 Travelall 1010 - Slammed Family Cruiser Build.

There is a crew cab pickup local to me for $4k, I forgot how ugly the trucks are LOL.

I still think with a 7.3 Powersmoke it would be sweet.

I think they're so ugly, they're beautiful, a throw back.

I hated the reason I sold my first IH, so had to do a second.

It's definately an acquired look :laughing:I like the travelall better than the pickup of the generation. But it's all the same from the back doors forward :flipoff2:

sweet build, gonna be an awesome ride:smokin: do not envy all that sanding

Ammeter on my scout got bypassed when that hot wire decided to melt the board. Not a bad idea to skip it and throw a voltmeter in somewhere (or use one of the cig lighter digital ones)

Thanks!!

Yep, mine is already bypassed, I don't like got wires just kicking around......
 
Did a little tonight! Pissed at myself for sloppy work and didn't touch it for awhile. Feels good.

Where we left off. Trying to fill pin holes. Very unsuccessfully....

After an hour or so. Getting better again. Lots of pin holes still. Other side is way better.

Doing digital work today. Read thru all the SPI tech stuff again. Going to call them Monday to ask questions and order the rest of the paint stuff I need. They have amazing tech support!

Found a fabric to lace the roof with. Ordered it.

Spot putty round 3..... Way further to go. But getting closer. It's been sitting so long I need to go over the whole thing with a scotch Brite too.

Gonna try to get the garage clean enough to paint. Wish me luck.

Should I pull the old plastic I out up for primer down? I'm worried it may be dusty, but it's not super close to the spray area.
