Project Stepn' Down is in the scrap yard.

Pics Up tomorrow. But here is what is going on.

I got a 1994 RCSB Full Size w/ a 4.3 auto for doing a engine swap for a kid. He didn't have all the money to pay me and I needed a vehicle so I took it as part of my pay.  Thing sat for about a year. All we did was fill the tires with air and Jump the battery and it fired right up. Need less to say it need some work. The kid cant drive and put it in a few ditches. Need some work to get it back on the road. But we got it half way home and it was over heating Freeze rusted out.  Well I put a freeze plug in it and fixed the front end and drove it as it was. Trans only had 1st and 2nd but I drove it any way. Well need less to say I killed the trans after 3 months of use.

I pulled the motor and trans out of it and dropped a 350 and newer 4L60E in it. Put newer fenders on it. Better hood. Got a 3 core radiator for it. I found a stepside bed for 200 bucks just needs a tailgate. I have a new rear window for it Need to put Cab corners on it. Like to put a roll pan on it as well. Plain to do drop it a bit. Like to do a 2/2 or a 2/4 drop to it. I need to find a solid front bumper with out he plastic trim. I really want to find a set of Old Chrome Steel rims off a 454SS/LS rims. It need some Interior work as well but thats last on the list.

I know I know. I spent all day getting ready for tests that I failed anyways. LOL I am so damn glad I am done with school.  I will get a few tonight or in the morning. She anit much to look at now, but I hope it will when I am done.

I did find a set of Outlaw IIs with some nice wide tires for it today, Going to pick them up tomorrow afternoon or Friday.

[Cannaert]

Finely got some pics of it.
Got the new bed sitting over by the barn. Need to make some saw horses for it so I can fix the dents on it and what surface rust it on it. 
I am going to need another DS fender for it. The on on there is better than the old on but its going to be looking like old one if I sand it down and work on it.  Still looking for a painted front bumper and a roll pan or a nice painted rear.

I thinking about buying the Summit Racing Paints and giving them a try. I have read some good reviews about it so I going to give it a shot.
Colors I am looking at doing as of right now.

Well I did a massive one wheel peel in it today.  It spun the damn thing up in to third gear. Was freaking cool as hell. My son was in riding with me and he was like "OOOOHHHH YEEEAAA DAD This thing is Fast" I just started laughing at him.

[Cannaert]

I wanted to do black and I still may with some type of addition custom work to it.  I really dont know yet.

Got a few pics of some of the work I got done over the weekend and this week so far.

OH and the New RUST-TOLUM auto paint sucks ass. I put down the bare metal primer let it dry as it told me on the can. Then put some High fill over it to do some work on the Hood and Fender. The Damn Crows Footed.  I will never buy that crap again.  I do need to go get some more. Shop Line (PPG's Cheapest Line) Epoxy and 2K Primer this week so I can finish up the bed and Front clip. 

One side almost done.

GOT a dent to fix and a bit more on here. Its 10x's better than the old bed.


CRAPPY PRIMER JOB on the fender and Front part of the Hood.  Hope it keeps the Bare steal from rusting.

[Cannaert]

Here is the bed on the truck right now. You can see were the bad stuff is  on from were the dirt collects on it.
Passenger Side



Driver Side. Its Great no dents or F-ups on it.

Well I got a bunch more done on this. Might not look like I did but I did. (pics up tomorrow photobucket is acting weird) I got the other hood sanded down and prime and ready for the hole to be cut in to it got the Mustang hood scoop. I took the OEM hood scoop off the junker Mach 1 out back. Got the sun visor almost ready to go.

The bed I got early is not going to be used.  I need to fix the wheel well on it and I dont really feel like doing that.

Tomorrow I plain to start to get it in flat black. Need to get it all ready to go for next week.
