This represents the last batch of the hardware I've cleaned. Countless hours and well over 1000 pieces. I won't miss it. If I knew of their existence I'd have bought a tumbler, but they came out nice. Next stop is black zink plating.

Got the pump to carb fuel line fabbed up. A whole evening into it.

Looks like a clean installation. Did you manage to avoid major kinks?

Today I got up early, lit the kerosene heater in the garage, and applied 2 coats of POR-15 and 2 top coats to a bunch of parts including rear axle, drive shaft, brake backing plates, shackles, spring hardware, etc. Also gave the same treatment to the spring mounts on the chassis. Assembly next week!!!

I put my engine back in as well but I dropped mine in. Setting it in would have been nice. No major damage. Hydraulics quit on my hoist.

Installed new pads. Removed the dash bezel because I'm going to paint it.

Tobogganing in the summer behind a boat is much more funner than in the cold winter.

From yesterday, but I had the truck in the shop to figure out some wiring nightmares today. Here's "Black Cat" freshly washed. I'll have to wait to hand wash it until the weekend. Bought this truck last weekend, no rust other than the front cab mounts, a little bit on the driver floor, and the tailgate. '67 GMC 3/4 ton.

Tore out the front suspension and steering. Going to be replacing everything except the control arms and drag link. New parts started arriving last week. I think the item I am most excited about is the faster ratio steering box

Here is the video from this week. Not much to video since it was all disassembly. Will get a lot more interesting when I start putting the new parts on!

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

I put bags in the back of my truck, now to do the fronts.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

I got some more epoxy primer laid down, next onto the front clip.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Hmmm. Maybe that '67 grille will fit mine without changing a bunch of trims parts around it.

New box from Redhead?

That was a total photobomb. My wildass buddies were hanging across the isle when I decided to snap some pics of my truck last weekend at Carlisle. Crazy Hanson saw the flas and was over in a flash. I knew he was there as I aimed and feared he was going down farther than that. Thank GAWD he didn't
I bet it is. This was at Spring Carlisle but if you said it was Winter Carlisle on Thursday or that night I would've believed you. 45 for the high with rain sideways between a few glances at the sun, wind, snow blowing, and 22 degrees that next morning! That aluminum cap was an ice box.
Your sure got a good one. I'm very jealous. Never seen 69-72 grille surround used with a 67/68 hood before. Didn't think it could work.

Went with my neighbour to pick up 6 2by 12 by 16 feet white oak boards for our tandem car trailer.Now for lights,paint ,new fenders everything else.

Tangerine tint? I haven't seen weird colored window tint in I don't know when.
Hey who's the mountain man posing?

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
 

Are you guys that are dropping in engines removing the hoods. I am going to remove and replace my engine this weekend and don't want to remove hood if I do not need to.
