Everybody that is currently building a car...

whats up all about a month ago i posted that i was going to do a bare metal 92 dodge dakota sport well its comming up on completion and it is looking sweet i will have pics up soon i decided that i did not like the way the bare metal was looking so i went to the local michals and baught every bottle of patina solution they had with a mapp gas hand torch and a every day garden variety spray bottle i rusted the truck every thing that i didnt want rusted i rolled bed linner on like in the cab and in the bed of the truckwell i hope that the pics i put up next week will give u a better idea i got a call and i have to go but i will tell u about it more or if u are intrested email me at jupiter420@mailcity.com later guys and gals until the next time

I have had those type of days pro70, I would like to say I haven't but I would be lying.:D At least it was a pretty quick fix, could have been worse.
I have the car full of water and everything is working well, new fan is functioning perfectly, It was leaking around the radiator cap so a new cap is in order. I put the dash in primered today so I can install and hook up the gauges. Everything fit well in to the dash even though I noticed that one of the holes was crooked, can you tell which one? So tomorrow there will be some grinding going on to fix that gauge.

I 'd say the one on the far left. Do I get a prize or just honorable mention??

I'll probly' pay for it tomorrow but I played hooky this weekend and worked on the floor bracing. Everything is tacked in now except the trans. cross member and a few gussets.

now you know. you must have been using a level and sitting in the drivers seat, making the car lean left when you marked the holes . you need to heat the springs on the lift side, that will drop it down.
:HMMM: :LOL: :LOL:

just joking brickman, looks like i might of did that.:LOL:

brickman. i fell bad about talking about you dash like that so i went ahead and put the gauges in for you. hope you like the radio.
:whacked: :HMMM: :cool:

Kewl. Now the dash is virtually done.

i forgot the most important thing. :CRY:

HAHAHAHAHA!! Very good work Guys!! I like the gauges looking Kewl!!!:D
Of Course the Fuzzy dice make it work!:D
I was personaly thinking of just putting a riser under one side of the drivers seat! It sure looks different than it did when I first brought her home a year and a half ago.

Nice work on the floor Pro70, how much more of that tubing goes in there anyway?
