And is that a 50/60 series COE grill yer holdin out on us there...maybe...?

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Yes indeed. Right off of a bus. Needs a good sanding or better yet -sandblasting. I also scored an UNBELIEVABLE GMC hood. Wanna see? More pics of the shopping trip on my website - see signature.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

That's a great score! Can't wait to see them polished up. I'd like some six lug slots

Lovin the slot mags! Nice score.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Look at what I had made for my truck. Since my last picture posts have been a TKO500 and a 350 block...well, this gives you an idea where this will end up.

Damn that's funny

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Glad you like. Originally I was going to do "fast" and "f*cking fast" but I have kids so I decided to be more correct about it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Driver door swapped out today. Nice to have a rust free door installed over my original which need inner/outer lower sections welded in. Fixed the broken window regualtor issue that popped up Monday too. Ill get some pics up later. 2hr start to finish and alignment/fit are great.

It also upgraded my windows to metal framed.

Well the day finally ARRIVED, we loaded up and brought the replacement bed to the painters! The only thing left is to but in the step sides inserts. I decided to use them afterall.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Well, pulled my BRAND NEW carb off my truck today. Taking it back to Autozone to do an exchange for another new one. So I get my first one, bolt it on. 30 miles of driving it starts seeping fuel outta the carb gasket and accelerator shaft. DANG! And that was a BRAND NEW carb! Wish me luck! Hoping my exchange carb will work! :chevy:

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Put the bed back on my truck. After I picked it up off the driveway. We had a windstorm, and it blew backwards off the sawhorses. It's bent at the bottoms, and the taillight panels, but it could have been much worse. My heart sank when I came home and saw it pancaked on the driveway. It actually looks ok back on the truck.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

hate to hear about the damage after all the work you put into it. ive been there myself and its no fun. hope it works out ok for you.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

It will work out. Looks better now that the bed is (temporarily) back on the truck. It sat on those stands for three months while I worked on it. Big thunderstorms, etc. No problems. One wind storm with 50mph gusts knocked it over. I did learn that it is much easier to put the bed on from the side with the engine hoist. Didn't even move the truck. I took it off the back last time, rolling the truck out from underneath. I should have put it on myself a couple of weeks ago. You know what they say about hindsight...

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

How about some Corvette manifolds and a hole for a manifold fill pipe drilled into a brand new Edelbrock to go with that 355 small block I posted a week or so ago?

Did I mention yet that my daily hay hauler is turning into a lumpy 4.56 geared, Tremec backed 3/4 ton long bed sleeper that will still haul hay and feed to our barn while being a stop light villain, push starting dragsters at the Vintage drags and burning up the drag strip on the weekend for giggles?

Re: What did you do to your truck today?

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

That T belongs to my friend and hot rod guru Chip Quinn and a fantastic thread on it can be found here: http://www.jalopyjournal.com/forum/s...d.php?t=824491

Who's the seat cover from? It would look good in a 64-66.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Very nice, the black houndstooth and the ochre. Get some floor mats for that truck so you don't get your new carpet all dirty!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 

Finally got around to doing a compression test on my 283. I started on the passenger side, # 2- 130 pounds, #4- barely moved the needle, I didn't bother doing the rest. It's new engine time.

Now both my rides need engine replacements. What fun.
