Still working on getting the truck ready to complete the interior work. Found a bad spot of rust from the inside of the cowel, to the top of the brake booster, and through to the inside of firewall. Ended up removing, clutch, and brake pedal assembly, and brake booster, to gain access, treated rust, patched holes painted,and seam sealed all three sides. Painted more misc. Items ashtray receiver, dash speaker covers dome light base. Trans tunnel cover plates, still working on cab paint, I might be a bit of a perfectionist. Even if it's a rattle can job it has to look as good as possible. Got the final coat of paint on dash core. Be ready for clear coat tomorrow. Glove box painted, started prepping fuse panel to go in, found a loose pin that the, retaining tab wouldn't hold, ended up using a small piece of crushed rock shoved into the housing to force the tab in, than super glued in place, a little janky but holds good and works good. On the surface it sounded like a simple job, but so many things to do once you get into it. I've got new carpet, and sound deadener showing up this weekend, so it's going to be a busy one. I'm hoping to have truck back together and driving this week.
