Jip Andy, I think I started making the liner when the roof was still off. It will be the only SFA with a solid roof liner, like all modern vehicles come out with today. Fitted the lining today quickly then my glue ran out, so I still have to finish around the doors and windows.

Froll

Finished off the fiberglass work on the roof liner. Glued in the cloth almost finished. Have to fit it now and then finish fitting the cloth around the window and door frames.

Welkom Jean-Pierre.

Finished the duct today, fitted it and started assembling the dash. Will start the working on the roof lining next week, am going to town first so I wont get too much done.

Welcome Andre.

Yes Thabo, I stopped mine about 20 mm from the sides, will see. Made a duct to fit in the cab where the air con duct goes. Made a galvanised frame. Quite difficult angels to do. Covered the frame with masking tape and fiber glassed the inside. Took the tape off and fiber glassed the outside. It must...

The one I used on the roof is a 6 mm with a foil lining on one side which I put o the roof side. On the floor I used a 10 mm one that did not have a foil lining on it. In February we get temp of up to 53 deg, so we will see how much it helps next year.

Froll

Thanks all. Louis, I am using it to try for sound deadening mostly, it does not hold moisture and is cheaper than underfelt. will see how well it works. It is those thin exercise mats that one gets at sport shops.I got mine at Mr Price sports.

Froll

Finished of the floor lining and fitted new carpets. started cleaning some panels and fitted rear panel.

Froll

Thanks for all the great comments everyone. Want to try and finish the carpets and some odds inside the cab this weekend. Then I will finish the roof liner next, so I can get the doors on.

Froll

Welkom Joseph.

Have not done too much work lately, been a bit sick. Was off on Friday, so got some stuff done. Put the lining in the roof, got most of the floor done, ran out of lining. Did all the interior wiring, roof lights, speaker and reverse camera.

Been a while since I posted. Fitted the load bin, did the inside. Finished the fenders and tail gate today. Fenders are not fitted yet, just needed somewhere to put them. Must fit the doors first.

Welcome Faldie, hope you enjoy it here on the forum. Post some pics of your ride.

Over the last 2 weekends I have repaired, undercoated and sprayed the load bin. Fitted plastic parts. Having long weekend this coming weekend and getting visitors from overseas the weekend after so I wont be doing anything for 2 weekends.

Getting there slowly.

Froll

Did some work on the load bin this weekend. I also did some wiring. The relay and timer for the wipers is in the switch on the steering shaft. I also managed to short my circuit sheet that fits behind the dash cluster. Does anyone maybe have one lying around that they dont need?

Froll

Welcome Frans, hope you enjoy it here on the forum.

Welcome Con, hope you enjoy it here on the forum.

Hi Nic, have been looking and asking. It seems to me that the relay and timer is all inside the switch itself. When I look at the wiring I will see what I can find.

Froll

Nic I will have a look over the weekend. I have tried to look but am not sure where it is. I will maybe be putting a battery in the weekend to do some wiring, if I get that far or else it will be the weekend after. Will let you know when I find it.

Froll

Welcome Enrico, hope you enjoy it here on the forum. Post some pics of your truck.

Made a few heat shields today and fitted. For the starter, clutch pipes and brake pipes. Fitted exhaust. Also got the cab back on the chassis.

Froll

Very awesome build Tony.

Froll

Very, very nice. A job well done.

Froll

Thanks Thabo. No I have not done any mods to the motor yet, I just want to get it finished and running at the moment. Will be looking at getting a spare set of heads that I can fit inserts for the valves so that it can run on unleaded fuel. Will maybe do other mods later. The crank I had machined to...

Been working on a bracket this week for the power steering pump. I used the old pump from the 22R. Was a bit of a tight fit but got it sorted. Will have to use an electric fuel pump. We worked this last public holiday so we are off next Friday. Am hoping to finish a few heat shield plates this week ...

Hi Shadrach, I have also had a problem on a Ford bakkie at work. I later found that the suction pipe in the fuel tank had a crack where the pipe goes through the plate. I replaced the part and the problem was solved. We have a lot of dirt roads where I live with bad corrigations and I think this cra...

Heads are done and motor is in. Must still make a bracket for power steering and fit. Getting there slowly.

Froll

Andy normal use is for wet sanding before polishing. Not sure what Cassie wants to do with it.

Froll

Cassie ek het nou die dag by ons Mica gesien en gekoop. Hulle het net P1500 en P2000 gehad. Maar ek dink enige plek wat car paints verkoop sal he.

So this weekend I assembled the sub ass. Still have to do the heads. I want to fit the motor next weekend, will finish the heads and fit when motor is in. Is a bit of a schlep to do the torques all by yourself. Only work in the mornings at the moment, still too hot.

Froll

Been very hot here by us in the last month, top temp of 45. Started cleaning and spraying interior plastics. Tried this product, will see if it lasts and how good it is. Also fixed the covers that go on the center pillars between the doors.
