72 duster Build progress
Sorry for not having any updates this week guys, this last week has just plain sucked!
My wife got laid off, the oil pan on our jeep just rusted to the point it is seeping oil through the rust (truck itself is in great shape...its a 2000 ....but the pan is rusty). Our dryer broke and we got a $3,000.00 bill from when we had to take our little one into the emergency room a couple weeks ago ( they got the insurance messed up somehow).
anyhow....thats whats been new here.
HOWEVER, the last 2 days I have been busting *** getting the duster ready for the new windshield!
so I wire wheeled the glass channel,cleaned everything up,smoothed things off,sprayed down a rust converter (old gasket leaked and left some slight pitting in the metal in spots),then layed down primer , then installed all new trim clips (the screws came pre coated with a wax sealant but I covered them all in a trim and weather strip adhesive just to be safe).
And while I was waiting for paint to dry I decided to install my gauge pod (still have to hook the gauges up though and I need to get green bulb covers so they match the rest of my gauges and cd player).
check it out!
