1973 Travelall 1010 - Slammed Family Cruiser Build.

[Java230]

Nor any " standard" parts. The tractors where way more uniform than the trucks.

Exactly lol. It's a D44 Rear end

Shiiiittt

There's a deal there somewhere.

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 I like the travelall better than the pickup of the generation. But it's all the same from the back doors forward

sweet build, gonna be an awesome ride 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)

Any updates?

Any updates?

I spot putted some pin holes.... That's all I have had time for

 

[Java230]

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.

I wish I had the patience

 

[What?]

Nice work!

 

[WaterH]

I wish I had the patience

My thoughts exactly.

 

[Java230]

I wish I had the patience

I'm about to saw Fawk it it's good enough....

 

[Java230]

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.

 

[Java230]

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.

updates?

Want the room in the garage yet?

Java230 just spent the entire project budget on a belt tensioner while stuck out in BFE.

Nope Bertha can stay in the garage.

We got garage cats..... I need to get them out of the garage to spray.....

 

[Java230]

Minor progress!! Drivers side needs touch up at one door gap, but pinholes are done. Wiped with glass cleaner. It's filthy!



And still looks the same

 

[Java230]

Update finally fuckers.

Tailgate is sanded out.

Sticky paper FTW.

And still looks the same

 

[Java230]

Aw yeah

 

[CDA 455 II]

Very nice!

 

[Flatbed]

Sweet! looking forward to how it turns out man.

 

[Java230]

Gonna be tucking rim

 

[scooter2374]

Badass.

 

[Java230]

Badass.

Assuming I can make the width work!

Hoping to get it mostly clean this weekend.

 

[Java230]

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.

 

[Projectjunkie]

I'm really looking forward to seeing this with paint

FWIW, don't get too OCD about it, even if it turns out to be a twenty footer, it'll be pimp
