start work
Out at Jim's place my initial goal was to give it a good cleaning, and do all thev repairs and paint neccasary on the outside front wall so once it was on the truck I wouldn't have to move it to paint it again. I stripped the front down to bare metal, fixed a couple of dents and primed and painted it. In between I removed all the hardware from the roof, fixed the door handle that I broke and gave a very superficial sanding to remove loose flakes and gave the whole truck a coat of paint that is intended to be temporary. Then haveing stripped the tools boxes accesorys and POW racks I drove my truck out and with the assistance of Jim swapped the old box out and stored in his back 40 under wraps and lifted on the body to it's permanent home. and then brought it home as the 60 minute commute was time I could spend working on it at home.
