My winter project is to finish cutting the good parts off of the P'up I bought on ebay so I can sell them and scrap the rest. I am considering making some drop diff brackets out of the P'up diff brackets like I did for my Amigo to sell on here; but I don't know how much interest there would be after putting in the time and effort.

I already did an unplanned winter project last weekend. I was hitting the surface rust on the Amigo with a grinder so I could add some fresh spray paint. Grinding -> more rust -> grinding -> more rust -> grinding -> grinder goes through the side of the truck <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> Ended up with a 1.5" x 6" hole by the time I got to clean metal. Apparently said rust had gotten worse than I realized. So I dug around the barn and found some old duct work (galvanized = no rusting). Cut it with tin snips to match the hole. Spot welded all around until it was filled in... which sucked on such thin metal, BTW. Sealed the bare metal, several coats of high-build primer, sand, primer sealer, and about 6 coats of fresh spray paint and it looks better than ever! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/notooth.gif" alt="" />
