Glad to see your back at it!

What is your thinking on the later floor in the early cab? Oh neat build, I like the air ride idea.

Im about 12 miles north of Cape Girardeau. I've never done a SD swap personally but I have a buddy who did.

Well the stock floors in all the crewcabs till 1980 had no footwell in the rear seat area....just a flat floor. So sitting in the back was a real pain, literally. So I decided to use a SD floorpan to fix that, lower it in the cab so it would give even more room, and now I can bolt in a set of king ranch seats

I go down to Larry Schmit truck part once in awhile very good people to deal with.Also do business with Custom Dif.(Jeremy).
I really like the way you used the SD floor.Now you got me thinking about doing it to mine when we redo the body.

No kidding, I'm about 14 miles from his salvage yard. Yeah Jeremy and I go way back. He's done my diff work and I've done his 12V wiring for years. He did the 80 that's in this project.

Its not bad putting the floor in, but it takes time and several people to wrestle it up in there. Come on down and I will give you a first look at it

We might be going to Farmington.my son-in-law wants to get a wood stove down there.

[Ibuildembig]

Cool I'll pm you my number. I have some concerns with the Pete stuff, Im thinking I will need a set of bars to keep the wrap in check.....still mulling that over in my head

Subscribing to this thread! There are a ton of great conversion builds here on CompD.

 

[Ibuildembig]

I did a test fit on super duty weatherstrip and it seems to work great so I'm happy about that. I also put part of the clip back on to see what I'm gonna have to do about the rad support mounts. I also finished up a bench for a customer.

 

[2wpuller]

My wife can't wait for me to make a bench for our patio.She actually likes it but has to have a nice paint job.
Will give you a call later.

[Ibuildembig]

Will do. They wanted me to try to match the 30 year old patina lol I did put 5 coats of satin clear on it so it wouldnt stain anything
