Always good to have batteries in a trickle charge . My son got me a solar cell that Toyota put on the Prius during transport to keep the battery tipped off I have it on the dump trailer most of the time .


Mixing it up today. I love doing body work with a 3 and 8lbs sledge

Body work and primed

Bumper came out nice . Painted it in the cargo trailer I’m converting into a small spray booth . Plan is to put two windows in with air filters ,trailer already has a camper door so I can get in and out . I have an explosion proof exhaust fan the we used at the body shop, plan is to vent it out the roof vent . Took it out after 40 minutes to bake in the sun .

Looks great

And got some shiny trinkets. Got these from Summit because they were on sale and $20 cheaper than anywhere else added a few things I needed anyway and got free shipping too, they were drop shipped from Holley . Actually very impressed with them .

Nice work on the bumper. and those emblems look good, too!

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

yes sir,very nice work on the truck and those emblems are gorgeous.top notch.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Those emblems actually came from Brothers Trucks, now owned by Holley

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

The emblems are really nice and have some weight . Detail is very good we shall see how they hold up . I realized as I was putting the fenders on that if I buttoned up the front I would have to use barrel clips I prefer using the speed nuts .

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Maybe Brothers will get better . I stopped ordering from them a couple of years ago every time something was on back order usually the piece I needed most . I never actually got anything from them I had to cancel every order after a few weeks .

Just my experience.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

I also installed new emblems on my truck but I should have put the old ones back on.

your emblems look great Mark

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

That truck is coming along nicely!!!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Thanks for the kind words on the truck . I’d like to get it done before winter but it’s not looking so. Was 54 degrees today and windy . Got a few things done hopefully get the back glass in tomorrow.

New rollers on the regulator. Was fairly easy to do I did use a 6mm socket to hold the river flush while I tapped the other side with a cross peen hammer. No crushing of the roller .

Buttoned up the door but I’ll have to disassemble to install the mirrors when they come . No big deal as luck would have it I bought a new counter parts dash pad and some armrests from a guy on Facebook . The pad is brown and the armrests are black but I think it works with the trucks colors . My dark fawn seat came yesterday too . Out of three passenger doors and two Drivers I managed to salvage 3 silver door plugs

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Right on Mark, hopefully you get'er done before winter ......

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

I keep plugging away at it . Rear glass in

Nice! What sort of paint did you use?

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Installed the PO3s I got from too much stuff. After couple hours with hammer and dolly and then cutting the centers out of the worst 2, I got them got put on today. When I get new tires, I’ll paint the wheels white like they oughta be. Now if I could only find some affordable Spicer big hub lockouts!:lol:

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

That does look fine.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

Gave my rebuilt for the last time differential its 500 mile oil change. Got delayed a day when the friction modifier decided to pour onto the floor instead of the fill point - but Amazon delivered another 4 ounces on Sunday. Got it buttoned up and took a drive to stir it all up..

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
 

And to think that I thought I was the only one that had luck like that..:lol::lol:

Glad she's up and back in action.:gmc2:
