Truck body work

 S&S Industries




Spray inside rust converter  .... 


Cut back 

 

 
Cold Galv ... 

I tried to use Aluminum speed tape but it was useless. Here is a Gorrilla 4 inch Waterproof tape (expensive) being used as a temporary measure to keep the Coppers from putting a Yellow Sticker (canary) on the Truck. 

The gum in the Gorrila tape is really sticky .. it will take some getting off. In retrospect I would have been better to go straight to the Fiberglass stage.  I have been driving around with the Gorilla tape for a fortnight. The truck was looking very shabby - Cop Bait.

Getting some filler and paint  on it is the next step. Choosing the paint and how to prep the existing crappy paint ... The entire cab is looking a bit forlorn.

 

Gonna get some new license plates too. The Old ones are faded and obviously from the 80s. 







The butyl adhesive is sticky as can be. It will be hard to remove. DONT DO  THIS .. Cover the remaining adhesive with adhesive remover or paint thinner, such as Toulene. Will try prepsol.
