i like it that you're following my topic at the dutch forum!

alright its going to be picture heavy again, this is what i have done so far since december

ordered a lot of parts, almost finished the steering pump mounting brackets.
got a new filler hole for the mustang tank, 2/3 of the parts that i have ordered are at the truck, still waiting for my shipment from NY (flasback f100's)








disassembled the steering, because the new pump wouldn't fit on the steering shaft




some one has been busy with the column













new brackets, the origineal place from the no limit wide ride wouldn't work, so i had to think of something else


fits perfect, but i have to change it, its probably not heavy enough...



rust was showing itself at the cab floor again, so it was time for some paint!






and then i started with the fuel tunnel
















so i have to finish up the steering column, with a new bushing or ballbearing.
i changed the leafs in the right way, thanks trickf100!

last week i picked up some parts that were shipped to holland, started installing them just for show




















as you see, she smiles again!

i'm still expecting:
inner fenders
LH outer fender
new gauges
hood
cab to fender mountings
dash defrosters

this will probably arrive in about 4/5 weeks!

edit: almost forgot, i have designed an alu plate for the new alu radiator for a SPAL fan:

Looks great jurrien! And your English Is very good. Is it common there for people to know English so well? Just curious.

Blijf op het grote werk

Thanks!

A lot of people speak English, i work offshore and not in holland, so i have to speak proper english.
but if you go to holland, most people (about 80%) especially the students will manage to answer your questions without a problem, it will sound funny with a dutch accent

Nice work. Iike your gas filler setup, better than the cap on the floor of the bed like most seem to use. You probably will have to add a vent line to avoid gurgling and slow filling.

[jurrien]

It was hard to get it over there, not perfect either but it will do.

I'll try to get an air vent on the original hole.

[sargentrs]

Great work!

[jurrien]

whow i should update more often over here!

it's going to be photo heavy again

Got all the second hand parts in months ago





see if it all fits



inner fenders didn't fit over the new wide ride



more paint




more work





sandblasted and first layer of paint


be gone paint!



Radiator shroud



bushing for steering column




fresh air




more paint





building up






Time to make a new wiring harnass



it's going pretty well


that's it for now, next week i will drill one more hole in the bed and after the bed, doors and some small stuff are going to the sandblaster.
i probably have some welding work to do after it and hope to bring it around februari/march to the painter

[sargentrs]

Great job, Jurrien! You're doing some amazing work!

[Mancar1]

Enjoyed checking your project out. Very nice work.

[jurrien]

thanks guys, not much news at the moment, i am waiting for a few parts to come oversees.
The bed and doors are sandblasted and are getting a primer right now.
If i get back from work (mexico) i start with customizing the dashboard and then i'll start working on the bed

[jurrien]

Guys i need some help, I have no idea how to change these out.
I bought a new set at LMC, but there is no manual with it. Does anyone now how to do it?!

EDIT: figured it out!
