Thread: Angry_Truck rebuild update

    Default Angry_Truck rebuild update

    Hello. Time for an update on the status of my truck.

    I just spent the last 2 weeks working on my truck with my dad.
    We went from this:


    To this:


    The entire truck was torn down, sandblasted, yet more rust repaired, and painted (24087 is nice...) during that time. It about killed us and I still have a long way to go before it is on the road but it is good to have a big chunk of the heavy work done.

    I took lots of pictures during the process, they are posted here on Shutterfly:

    I also did a couple of before/afters that compare the very beginnings of this project (about 6 years ago) until now:





    Unfortunatly, I wasn't able to assemble all the pieces during the 2 weeks. I am planning on doing that as much as possible next weekend, so I will have more updates then.

    Cheers,
    Brian (and Angry)

    Man, that looks great! And talk about some quick work too. You'll be up and running in no time. Kinda makes me jealous.

    More progress this weekend.

    We temporarily bolted most of the painted pieces onto the truck in prep for transporting it again.

    Here's how it is now.

    Still a long way to go before it runs but its nice to see it looking like a real truck for once.
