Replaced a leaky lower hose, moved the temp sending unit while I had the coolant drained, replaced the power steering pump and pressure hose. Sounded like marbles rolling around in there!! Tracked down a tranny leak. Had to watch it for a while running to track it down. More to do tomorrow...

Hauled an old furnace, air conditioner and some recycling this morning.

This afternoon, reattached the downpipe to the exhaust manifold after I literally "blew a gasket" but this time went sans gasket thanks to some advice on this forum. It'll hold 'til I get my new manifolds or headers.

Changed oil and filter.

Drove it some more with the window down. It was a beautiful day in Columbus, OH.

Thought about getting a job, and praying for one...Hoping to get my 59

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Installed the OER tailgate that I found today at Summit's "Scratch and Dent" sale (which cost me less than $100, including tax).

Also installed new fuel sending unit and was surprised to find this part from LMC had a metric size hex (but fortunately retained the proper, non-metric thread for the steel line) on the fuel fitting.

Kicked out my old cracked windshield to find the rust monster munching away.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Yikes !!!

How would you fix that ?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Well we got the idea of using part of the inside of a door since they usually have all kinds of curves in them. Then my friend welded it in for me. Not really fixed the right way but it'll keep it from leaking and on the road til I can fix it right.

I'm fearing that is what mine is going to look like.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Cut out like 1 BaJillion body rivets out of my extra SWB frame and partially reassembled it so it'll remain square. What a PITA, but it'll let me paint every surface when it's time for it. I also built a hidden receiver hitch out of a Dodge Ram hitch I got at the scrap yard for $5. :metal:

How do you clean the Chasiss ? However you spell it..I want to clean up my 1959 GMC 100

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Hopefully you don't have chrome around your windshield. Cause we are on hour 2 of trying to get my glass and chrome to fit in.

I got the console finished and upholstered. Finished custom building a ultra leather headliner and rebuild the visors in same material. Now just to move Air ride suspension gauges and switches to custom bezel build to go between console and dash.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Wow thats some nice interior

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

what did you use to attach the headliner to the roof

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

No work on the '67 today. Had to take the day and replace the radiator in the '92 GMC dually.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

It is made from heavy duty 1/2 inch upholstery foam wrapped in ultra leather. It is glue to the roof instead of buying the chrome trim and drilling holes. I like the cleaner look it gives. We carved lines in the foam for just a bit of design.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

i do like your interior ....NICE..

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Tell me what yall think......This is the new gauge bezel for the RideTec Air gauges and switches. It will be mounted between the dash and new console right under the heater/def control panel. Should I leave it brushed aluminum (as is) or paint it Orange?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Where did you get the stainless cup holder inserts?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

No question about it. Brushed aluminum.

I'd vote for one change though:

Turn the gauges and switches "the other-side-up" so you won't wreck that truck or your neck as you drive while standing on your head.
