Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I decided to try out an idea that's been rattling around in my head for awhile. I always thought some contemporary Corvette wheelcovers might look like something someone would do back in the day. I had been shopping for some cheap ones on eBay. Then, my dad independently came up with the same idea, so I felt justified. These are from a '65 Corvette. They aren't perfect, but I did strip all the black paint out and repaint them after someone did a horrible job with a paintbrush. They didn't cost a lot, so I figure they're a good gamble. I love the way the six holes line up with the six lugs. They kind of remind me of a 1960s Hot Wheels car.

Started making centre console to house cd player and speakers, not sure if I like it yet but thought I,d try this before I go cutting into doors and dash. When its finished I,ll make up my mind. Sorry no pics yet as there's only a basic shape at the moment.

finished with the bed boards over the weekend - white oak with Minwax "natural" stain + 4 coats of oil-base polyurethane all around - test fit everything this morning and it kinda makes me want to paint the truck black (in primer now)…

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Pulled the hood this morning, then drilled alignment holes in both hood hinges, and removed them as well. Power washing comes next, followed by clean up and paint detailing.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Yesterday: (Finally!) finished my El Cheapo steering wheel restoration and repaint, got a new horn button and installed. Once I got the button out of the box I found it had a slight dent in it from shipping I guess (DOH!) But I wanted to put it on anyway for the pic. Necker knob I had bought for it didn't fit. Wheel is too thin for it.

Ok, it's not perfect and yes my cab looks like crap right now. Just did the wheel cause it looked unsafe to me): http://i832.photobucket.com/albums/z...a/DSCN0316.jpg http://i832.photobucket.com/albums/z...a/DSCN0317.jpg |
