My 1974 single cab fleetline wide load splitty

Post by louisvr45 »

Hi

I have started with my SC project posting it here

up to this time I have done the following:

replace 2 new tires.
renew the the brake fluid and the front brake shoes and relining, flexy pipes in front seals of the wheel cylinder as well as the front master cylinder seals.

service the engine. did a carb kit

start cut out a section of the floorboard that was badly rusted - to replace it.

took the bumpers of to be prepared for sandblasting and powercoating
does any one know if its a good idea?

and took all the sides off of the wide bed . and the wide bed as well....

the bed is so far the section thats bad rusted

Ill be updating and uploading photos of the project

cheers - let me know what u think
