Well, it's Day 8 (I'm counting from the day the truck arrived.) and the following has been accomplished: (in spite of over 105 degree Fahrenheit for each of those days which has limited working time to 4 hours each morning!)

The front fenders have been removed.
The doors have been removed.
(All the sheet metal forming the outside skin on the front of the cab was removed when I received the truck)
All the bolts that hold the bottom have of the back of the cab have beem removed.
All the bolts (except one) that hold the top and the back half together have been removed.
The windshield wiper motors (which I believe will work when cleaned up) were removed.
After 8 days the remaining 2 nuts of the twelve that hold the two halves of the split rim together were freed. Replacement of the tire blown during shipping can proceed.
The windshield top and bottom brackets were loosened.
The inside top panel above the steering wheel column was removed along with a Chevrolet heater. Have attached pictures of that little gem.

Have not removed the body parts as I am hoping for a visit from my body person who lives nearby. I wanted him to see all before we completed this step. All in all, with the help of some friends things are moving along quite nicely!

I do have a deadline to get everything stripped off the frame as the agreement with my neighbor to keep my Kubel in his garage was for 30 days only (set firmly in cement by his wife....) I've got 22 days to go and all is looking good!

More to follow!

Regards,
Jim
