Looks great! Is the fuel pump going to have to relocate? Also, is that a package specific to the 67-72 SWB, or did you have to cut, fit, and weld?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

I like that, did you make it?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

No sir, I ordered it from cupholdersplus.com it's the shorty bench seat console. It's very well made and solid, also made in the USA, I always try and buy American made products over import

I installed carpet in my truck yesterday that I bought off a board member here. After that I loaded the dog in the back and the woman in the front and went on a trip to a friends for the day for some good beer and bbq.

The carpet is by far my best upgrade to the old girl since I bought it. It's amazing the cab noise reduction, It's like driving a completely different truck

One step closer

Looks good, what color paint is it?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I painted the wood floor in the bed of my '67 swb stepper today with Rustoleum Black paint. It looks a lot better than it did with miss-matched color boards.

Yesterday I built and put a cover over the gap between the shroud and the top of the radiator. Tomorrow I plan to paint it black.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Expat_dude : that is Real Nice....like the color...looking good.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Replaced the rear wheel cylinders and took all the brake components to the wire wheel ... greased up the contacts, put on new shoes.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

started it up cleaned the windows and went for a ride.
then I parked it. runs nice but I need some frontend work .
it was all over the road. I think that will be my next thing to fix.
need to lower it and get some frontend work.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Looks like 2WD? Is that a straight axle under it? Those are really cool if you ask me but they don't handle well at all. I like the look as is.

Have the alignment and tires checked.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Thanks guys the code is tangier orange 516, several coats of base and clear. We put a light touch of HOK gold flake in the bottom coats of clear.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Hit the parts counter this morning to pick up new thermostat, housing, wires, cap, rotor, and points to get my 67 long stepper fired up after sitting in a field for years. Got everything on, ready to rock and roll. Filled up the radiator...just to see water coming out from the passangers side engine block by the starter. NOOOOOO!!!!!!!

Luckily it is just a rotted freeze plug. But now I gotta get in there to replace it. Really don't wont to pull the engine.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

yes, it`s a straight axle with 6 inch lift blocks.
need to remove them first. and buy some new tires and rims too.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Built a little tray for my cardboard glove box. I was tired of my stuff always sliding aft and then almost spilling out when I opened it up. I'll post pics tomorrow when I finish painting it. I think it'll be gloss black with an "8-350" emblem on the front.

Nothing special, but I'm happy with it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Wow your truck just looks awesome, I love the color. Might be changing my mind about red.

That's pretty cool - looks right at home in there.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Opened up the garage and got the lawn tractor out. Said hi to the "Cream Sickle", yep that is its name now. A guy on a facebook site for 67-72s named it for me because it is bright white with bright orange racing stripes and a bright orange interior.

Later today I am going over to the garage and do a little paint touch-up. I many even have time to fire up the '75 dually and take it for a drive down back roads.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Me and the wife took a little drive and spent some much needed time by our selves.We live with her mother and her mind is starting to slip a little and she wants to go everywhere with us.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Replaced my tired 42 year old engine in my 71 GMC with a new 300hp crate engine and headers. And a new radiator since when I drained it the whole drain plug part ripped right out of it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
