Been awhile since I posted anything on my barn, I finally got my permit and was able to dig for my foundation, ran into a minor issue my area I want barn is all fill and boulders so I ended up with a cellar hole to get all the fill out and will haul in crush and run to fill it back in after walls are hope.

The company is VC Sandblasing, they are out of south shore. I think they should be able to, they where recommended to me by a friend who had them do boats and his antique pick up there number is 781-353-4400 and the person is Craig.

They charged me just $700 to come out and do it, I sent him pictures of the trailer and he gave me a price, they used glass beed to remove the paint. Did a nice job.

Today we sprayed the trailer with Rust Bullet primer, that stuff is the best primer I have ever used. I got it originally to just go over the rust before I decided to sand blast it. So we just applied it over the bare metal and what ever got missed, covers very well and well worth the cost of $168 a gallon.

My truck has no problem with the articulation on the camel back, plenty of room for them to go up and down and still be below the 5th wheel. I had to replace mine because who ever drove it before me got the rear portion one to many times getting under the lowbed.

Didn't they build a new station up at South Elementary school on the corner in the little league field.

I have my truck insured through Comerce and have had no issues and they are reasonable.

No barn is the same size room for just the two trucks, will keep the trailer near by. I don't want to put my wife over the edge, she told me this antique truck thing is a disease is keeps getting worse.

Your truck looks great with the work you have shown. It is your truck you are the one who drives it and enjoys it and are adding your personality to it and that is great. The fact you took the time to go to the lengths you have gone to is to be appreciated by others who have restored trucks here and in a way we all add our touch to them. My B-61 has the same color inside because ( sorry to purists) I hated that green, the rest of the interior is correct as is the rest of the truck.

I will be using an 1.5" crush and run (Dense Pak) the owner i work for is crushing at a development he has going, they use the stuff under roads and parking lots to place binder on. So the material will be free and I need 220 tons, a friend has a 10 wheeler I can borrow to move the material home to stock it till I have my site guy back in to back fill and compact it as he goes, he has a compaction plate that goes on the excavator, so I should be good and dense after he is done water it down for a week and pour the slab.
