Yer, right Mcfreak
haha and keeping my promise...
Well the test (as far as I know) went well! I finally got some time to get in the garage with my father and work on the cab. The bottom was in rough shape. The front base piece was missing all together. So we used a rubber mallet to remove the old pieces from the cab.
We had to replace the existing pieces that were once stapled on.
We then re-created the base pieces one by one from the originals.
We had to give them a coat of black.
The casters were in rough shape too. We removed them and they had looked like someone rolled the cab around in some hot tar. So we used some light sand paper and goof off to get them somewhat clean. Then used some steel wool to finish them off.
Got some new bolts to thread the casters back on.
Then put them in place.
We then figured the best way to attach the base pieces back onto the cab was with some angle brackets which we purchased at lowes. Just lined them up and away we went. Pre-drilled and screwed.
It was time to put DK back on his feet.
Now im just waiting on my painter to get back with me on the parts. He told me it would be 2 weeks, so far its been 5... I cant complain though the price was right. The coin door and bezel/marquee mounts are all I am waiting on to get this cab completed and moved in-doors.
I will get some pics of the wiring for ya hatrick and shilmover ill get some pics of the inside once everything is in place (since im assuming you dont really want a pic of it empty inside, or do you?)
Take care all, Next update...... Completion
