I put primer over it all today to keep the rust from growing. Anyway, I got the truck 60% ready for paint. I think I should fly right thru the driver side, and roof. And other little things. I got the full pass. side done and primed, along with the hood. tomorrow, if I can complete all bodywork it will be primed. Then I have to wait for more money to paint it. I am trying to sell the rims to see if I can make the extra cash to get it done.

I spent all day today replacing the damn bearing that went in my rear end. I was driving around and all the sudden it fell like my brakes were on... so i pulled over looked around and I didnt see nothin... so i drove home and i see oil leaking from my driver side drum brake, I take the wheel and drum off and its coming from the casing, I take the axle out and i see chunks of metal and bearings fall out. I am waiting for my bearing to come in so i can have it pressed on the axle and put the truck together so i can get to work tomorrow.

I start laying down paint on thursday. Today is all rainy so i am just gonna work on putting the rear axle together cause yesterdaty my 3.73's came in and I put the 3rd member back on the axle and I need to have the bearings pressed onto the axles and then i can put it back together. I need my truck! Driving my dads isunlicensed, uninsured, and has expired tags. I have been driving it around for all of last week. It would be pretty ****ed up to get pulled over .

And on saturday im racing it at PIR.My buddy from work is going with me in his escort. I'll have his *** take some video.

And this week i'm ordering headers as well. And then getting some cherry bombs to bolt up to em

They do make the header flanges on them.But its not gonna work. Damn crossmember is there. I'll just have to see where the headers drop down at. Anyway, I'll be looking at around a couple hundred bucks for exhaust. Thats gonna have to wait, I'll save some cash from next paycheck and then get it done on the next.

But anyway i got my truck back together yesterday and for some reason, my truck felt like it had some aggression to let out lol. I dont know if its from me drivin that 6cyl F150 or what? I forgot how much more power and torque my truck had then that 6cyl lmao.

Anyway, right now I am going to sand down the truck once more do get rid of any bumps and then roll some paint on. (Navy Blue paint btw...)
