Sorry to hear about your dad's leg, but good to know he still wants to tackle stuff, good for him.
And nice work on those dollies!
Veins clogged up after years of smoking. Good thing he is the type of person that can't sit still. It's tougher for him now, but he keeps busy.
Very nice stands you fabricated up there. I really hate to se doors that have speaker holes hacked in them. Besides the poor speaker takes all the weather and the door has no good sound quality. Looks like you are moving right along on your project. Did you ever discover what axles you have in that truck? You may have mentioned it and I missed it. Looks like you have a handle on it. Good Luck.
I hate having the speaker holes there too. Oh well, it's what I have to work with. The donor doors are in worse shape then I thought, will probably use the doors that came with the 1028.
Too be honest, I haven't looked closely at the axles yet. They are a D60 and a 14-bolt. Still unsure where they came from. The 14-bolt is from a
Suburban maybe? D60 from I think is original.
Comment by cucvrus is on the money, because really those things look well-thought out and solid:
- Where did you get that 3x4 material for the "stretchers" between the dollies?
That's good stuff.
All off the shelve stuff . Those "stretchers" are 50x75mm. 18mm plywood for the stands with 50x75mm in-between.
Has anyone ever replaced the door window sashes? All of mine are kinda rusted (through). I can make some work, but I'd like replacing them. After lots of Googling I found LMC has them.
