Ford KL Welder truck restoration

[Kirk Armitage]

Yes Bob ,that was the area, judging by the spruce trees it was sitting there for a while.
So now that there is a team of three, hopefully things will progress faster. Were doing a small dozer at the same time, hope none of the parts get mixed up ! Although after 15 years since tear down, things are a little on the fuzzy side.
Paint wise there was a little deviation, went with some surplus olive drab I had been sitting on. Were already at 3 1/2 gallons used and having been pricing automotive paint for our other project ,I can live with it.
The brake lines were run, got a good pedal and managed to get a few good days for paint. Still have to find the shock links, have it narrowed down to a couple buildings.

I also recall that truck, I like Bob, also lusted after it and had delusional fantasies of owning it and restoring it and showing it.

Grand job your doing

It's nice to feel re-energized about a project, after all this time. This forum is probably the main reason , when you see the different builds taking place all over the globe. Thanks Robin

Mate she looks fantastic keep posting more pictures . I think a lot of us understand the effort you are putting in, and lets face it its a learning curve for us all.

Thanks Shane . As per a conversation with Bob C this morning, I rolled out some white strip caulk on the cab floor and set the back wall into place. Just put a couple bolts in for now, have to dig up the originals in a box somewhere ?

Go to TSC and by a few pounds of assorted bolts...... good luck finding the square nuts.

Truck is looking very good.
