It really looks like bomb went off in a junkyard! I hope to get out there tomorrow and start at the back and work to the front.

Got out to the garage today. Still haven't found the spring plate I was looking for. I did find one from the rear spring that I used temporary so I can get this moved!

Now you have some room to move around! I'm sure that spring plate will show up eventually.

Goodness I hope so soon. Now this weekend I am going to fill the front and rear axles with gear oil and then pull the frame out of the garage. Next up is Cab work! Grab the popcorn and watch the show. You will have to decide if it's Drama, Comedy, Horror or successful........LOL.

I hope to be able to lay out a bunch of parts and go through what I need, what needs to be junked and what can be passed along to someone else's project.Lone Ranger wrote:Good work! It's always twice as hard to work in a messy garage. Your not gonna know what to do with all that space now

Your doing a great job for a small two car garage. That's impressive. That plate is right where you left it! Sorry I know the pain

Time for an update. Worked long hours last week so had Friday off! Here are the pictures to prove I did something.
Moved it over beside the garage and covered it with the tarps that had been covering the cab.

Then I got the Cab into the garage.
The cab survived being outside for the better part of 6 months. Now it is sitting in the garage.
