Wow that's quite the story but a '69 C/10 is worth it IMHO. :)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I have an overhead TV cable that goes through my detached garage and down to my cabin, so I only had internet in the cabin and only had a DVD player for the TV in the garage.
That got old only being able to watch DVD's in the garage and they were a distraction while trying to work on my truck too.
So rather than paying for seperate internet service to the garage or routing some line back to the garage from the cabin, I split the cable at the garage, packaged the modem and router together and now I physically move them and attach them to the cables with slip-on fittings.
There might be another easier method but I have internet, YouTube, and Amazon Music in the garage now so I'm good. :cool:

What length and weight rating is that trailer? Brand?

I plan on getting a 20ft 10k lb trailer, if I ever get the time to drive 4 hour to the dealer to go get it and 4 hours back

Swapped out the wheels finally on the 61 Impala yesterday. Ordered whitewalls a month ago and they showed up. Painted the steel wheels a month ago. Now I have a couple different hubcap options so spending a few days to think those over before slapping something on.

On a darker 61, I am a huge fan of chrome reverse wheels. On white ones, I would match the interior color. But on yours, the paint matched wheels are just fine.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

We thought of chrome reverse as we have a set on our 56 Chevy, but with the disc brakes added and drop spindles its pushed the wheels out far enough that you can run a truly "deep" front wheel. Would have to go back to all drum brakes and dont really want to do that. Luckily had on the shelf the front wheels as they are 14" of a early 70s Chevy to fit disc brakes. I have a couple different dog dish caps or a set of "crossbar" 4 bar caps just like the ones in the old photos of my grandpa's original 61 he bought new.

Moons and, maybe, trim rings. Don't want to cover those purdy wheels completely.

One of my favorite cars, for sure.... :c2:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Yes, I agree. :chevy:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

baby moons would look cool on your impala

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

And period correct at the same time.
Or some painted smoothy rims with mini moons.

Love the car and the color. Interested to see what hubcaps you decide to run with.
