Pity7700 Build thread, why not? pic heavy!

yeah the rust probably thinned the metal out so you push through alot more. how many wire speed settings is there? i'm used to bigger machines having 3 digit WFS lol. try turning it down. you might as well patch up that giant line of rust in the first pic

 

1-10 is the speed range. ill drop it lower. you think I can patch that line up without new sheet metal?

 

Wow. Im glad I don't have to deal with rust. I vote buy a new cab. Or buy a cheap crappy and i mean that literally gas saver and just pull off your cab and fix it little by little. That way you can get it all fixed and coat it all with a nice rust preventing paint or bed liner. I think the bottom line is here, salt sucks!

 

you aint kiddin man. salt blows.


that would be my plan but I cant drop money on another car right now. I could but I gotta move lol don't wana blow my money. im going to try and patch the holes up the best I can.

 

Ya I understand. Well do you work far away from home? You could always start running.

 

A piece of my bedside/cab corner just fell off because of rust. and its to damn cold to do anything haha

 

hahahah yea I work about 45 minutes away

ouch. that blows! its still a tad cold here.

 

looks like I sold my programmer to a guy in Ohio. had someone on F150forum want it but came short on some cash.

meeting the guy on Wednesday after 5.

wish I had my CPL. I hate meeting people off craigslist. I could open carry.

 

probably not. that rust looks paper thin and you'd just be making it worst

 

I thought that's what you were telling me to do lol I didn't think I could do that.


im going to have to cut the carpet or something on the inside of the cab so I don't catch anything on fire.

heres the other question. should I cut it out a little more and patch it just from the outside of the cab and leave the inside alone? should I just cut a piece of sheet metal that lays right over top of it or get a piece that is the right size?
