Projects 1964 dodge a100 truck project...

Dude......the suspense, THE SUSPENSE!!
That is a a perfect look for this truck- can't wait to see it.

 

Man totally digging the flake. Must see more

 

That A100 is farking cool as hell!

 

Next time in English please.

 

I have old american racing wheels that came on the truck, I'm keeping those. It had bias ply tires on the front and cheater slicks in the back, they are toast so I'm switching to radials because I actually want to dirve it places and not be scared half out of my head.

It now has the gold basecoast over the white. More pics as I can get them.

 

Let's see some pics...that is lookin NICE!

 

Brings back memories, used to have a '69 A-100 van with slant 6 and 3 on the tree. The first time my father saw that van, he said, "Son, if you ever wreck it, you'll be the first one on the scene of the accident," referring to the driver and front seat passenger's position seated directly over the front axle, with only a windshield and a piece of sheet metal in front of them separating them from the outside world. That thing had well over 300,000 on it when the slant 6 put a rod through the side of the block. Had an annoying leak that I never could track down and fix around the driver's side windshield. Every time I got in a hard rain, the leak would drip onto the turn signal flasher which would leave me with no turn signals. I owned that thing 3 1/2 years and probably put 20-25 turn signal flashers in it. That old thing drove really good, though, actually quite comfortable on a long trip after I replaced the original front seats with a pair of high-back buckets out of a Vega.

Here's some pics of the metal flake. It's in between sandings/clearings so it looks dull in the pictures.

Soon. Still more to do before it's done.

 

Went and saw this in person last night! Can't wait to see it done! Didn't realize quite how far she'd come 'til I read the post just now - Top points to Radio Bob!

 

I love it!

All you need is a couple of Hurst Emblems and Linda Vaughn and you have the Hurst Special!

 

Wow, that thing is beautiful. I totally love your truck!

 

Thanks!

 

I plan on jerking off on it.

 

That is probably more info than we need to know. Just a guess.

 

Great color and very cool lines. Is it too late to chop it and make a ruffer tuffer Deora?
Diggers of A100 and D100s should visit www.sweptline.org Big Dad is a regular there.

Really? You think?

Well Paul when that is done you need to hook up the van.

 

Yeah, I think.

 

Awesome Paul! A couple years back when I helped you repair the sheet metal section on your truck. I would have not imagined it to go full on paint and body.
Thumbs Up Homes! The truck is looking great!

 

You know what a bumpy lump of bondo and rust this thing was! It's come a long way for sure. See you soon. Choppercabras on the 25th!

 

Great looking truck.

 

Radio Bob is my new favorite person.
