Great news!! The COE is drivable so I pulled it out of the shop so I could clean up a bit and trade places with the El Camino




Found a water leak and an oil leak after the truck ran for about 5 minutes

Don you are so talented at so many crafts, I stand amazed. Well done sir.

Love that truck. Can't wait to see the finished product.

This week is the week for working on the COE. So I moved the truck outside the shop to get the fork lift close enough to lift the sleeper off the truck




Then put the truck back on the 4 post lift, moved the sleeper back into the shop and went to work building a floor structure and opening the right side to build some steps and an entry door






Once the structure was built I found some diamond plate to cover it for the floor



Then took the sleeper back out side to remount it onto the truck. Then pulled the truck back into the shop and put it on the lift so I can raise the truck up to a comfortable working height to build the stairs.
