Flushed the cooling system (been in the 100's here lately).
Bleed the brakes.
Washed/detailed.
Loaded up ice chests, and the canopy.

Parked snugly in her garage, anxiously waiting to show off at the Brothers truck show early tomorrow morning!

Took my 71 4x4 out for a nice long 150 mile shake down ride. Had a fantasic ride. Nice to have it on the road.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Finally finished stereo install yesterday:bann:, going to install carpet today.:D

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Went to a cruise inn,:ito:

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Went to the coin op car wash and got most of the crud off from camping last week. Also pressure washed the goo left behind by my old leaky steering box out of the wheel well.

Still need to give it a once over before state inspection tomorrow, and adjust the clutch.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I drove mine home from work for the first time ever. Get to drive it back to work tomorrow and put new tires on it, bleed brakes, and finish hooking up a few more things before I started driving it every day. :chevy:

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I worked on the '70 2day.
I replaced the leaking thermostat gasket with a Fel-Pro Perma Gasket.
Finished installing a Heartthrob exhaust system, but I have a leak at the manifold.
I cleaned off the millions of spider webs and dusted off the truck.
Started it up for the first time this year. It started no problem, fired right up. I love these trucks!
Too bad I couldn't have it ready for the Brothers Truck show today.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Today i took the door panel off and greased up the window so it would slide easier, then after that took it for a spin.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Dropped the sub's fuel tank, reran a new fuel line with proper diesel rubber and steel, put in a new electric pump to prime the motor, sprayed diesel everywhere transfering back into the tank, and broke a damn hood hinge!

I have a spare set from my 70 GMC, but that's 2000 miles away. I'm guessing it was the vibrations from the diesel idling with an open hood last week. I'll just weld it up and hope it holds.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

went to the brothers truck show today

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Well I sold my world famous Monroe bird poop patina 72 C10 burb I had recently reacquired.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Drove her to the Brother's truck show, later broke the hood latch spring in the front. Drove home praying that the hood wouldn't fly up on me... :lol:
Made it home safe - No prizes, just new friends!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Went to the Northwest Motorfest this weekend, went through 2 batteries, alternator is barely keeping it charged, had to jump it a several times. Then to cap it off blew a power steering line on the way home. Had an awesome time regarless of the problems though.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Replaced the rear 5 inch drop coils with 4 inchers. Much better now it has an even ride height and rids awesome.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Finally got off my butt and added the power brakes. It looks a lot better in the truck than sitting on the work bench.

:metal:

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

today i got some more of the painless wiring done

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I actually got my truck to fit into my shop.

Did an oil change, replaced the driver's side window regulator, then put the door panels back on.

Cruised around for a bit before helping the girlfriend's dad get his RV started. Took a short cut through Camp Pendelton and was complemented by the sentry on my Gadsen Flag sticker.

Prepping to remove the bed and move a crossmember to install my Blazer fuel tank.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Cleaned up the "new" to me transmission and then packed up my tools for work.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Put on a chrome radiator support on my 68. Covered up that ugly gap pretty good. Originally made for a chevelle but will fit w only having to drill 2 holes.:wop::wop:

Pulled the bed this evening. I need to move some crossmembers to fit my Blazer fuel tank.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I put new tires on the '72, found that the back half of the MC had no brake fluid in it-why no rear brakes...will figure this out tomorrow...

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Your worst panel looks better than my best panel. Needless to say I have been looking for a better cab / bed / clip / truck to start with when I get to body work on the 67.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I got my Carb back from my favorite Q-Jet Guru... I haven't had time to get it on the Truck yet... I'll have pics of that soon... It's going on the truck before the the Big Car Cruise in my hometown this weekend... I also received the the start of my TH400 to Something Manual Swap... :metal:

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

used it to haul my wife's crank, block to the machine shop

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Installed a stereo and some 6x9s under the seat.

Finally some tunes for my daily driver. I got a pair of 6x9 speaker boxes that barely fit under the seat, well they dont really because you can feel them when you sit down. So sooner than later I will cut the kick panels out and put some 6's in there and some tweeters in the dash somewhere. The dash was already cut by the PO so this was a quick and easy fit and fix.

I just needed some music when driving.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Warmed up the motor then changed the oil and then took it for another spin lol.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Nothin on the '69, but got the core support pulled off the wrecked '86 burb I picked up a few months back. Part of the accessory drive will probably end up on my '69 so that counts towards this thread, the engine will go into my '84 Trans Am.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

got the '70 out today runnin a little hot in this kansas heat and i think the bearings are goin out in the water pump :(

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Took my bench seat out today to get redone. New springs,foam and material...cant wait to see it finished.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Installed the new woodgrain dash bezel!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Installed a new fuel pump on the Blazer. Pretty simple job :)
