Wonderful PO wiring. haha That's the fuel pump hot wire...that's why I have it way up there so it won't melt. lol

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Not sure....I never paid much attention. lol Been that way since I got the truck is all I know. I'll get a better picture for ya so you can tell me if something is bent. lol Works OK and is tight and not going anywhere so I never touched it. Will be replaced as the booster seems to be shot...barely touch the pedal and you fly through the windshield. haha

I went to Harbor Freight and bought a new Jack and wheel dollies so I can move it around inside the garage working on it.

Found this little fridge magnet in Del's truck while stripping it for Martin yesterday.

Quite liked it.

Would guess its a few years old.

Anything of interest associated with it?

Sometimes these things are part of a bigger thing.

Good Lookin Cluster

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Reset the points on crustine's dizzy today. .016 is the recommended gap...I think I had them at some .024. lol Might be why she idle a little rough sometimes. New dizzy on its way though.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Like the dash insert? More info please?

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Here's what I did!

Started with the first picture.

Ended with the last two pictures. Believe it or not, progress was made. I probably have one more treatment before all the old paint is gone, then some primer to keep it from flashing over before the raptor liner goes on.

Now I gotta figure out what holes to keep! :lol:

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

It's not my truck, but it's going to free up some space and get tons of use. .. old Island out of kitchen who know...

Installed traction control to the bed

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Thanks I appreciate that! Ahhh, yes, the awesome PO Mod hole that you are referring to is a special option that was only available on one truck. So I have a rare truck indeed. Not really, the po cut a ginormous hole to fit some fuse panel there. The wiring on this truck looked like a monkey on crack did it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

I can trace a pattern for that area in case you want to make a repair that will match the way it was from the factory. Lemme know.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

thanks alot but another member here sent me a section of firewall for me to weld in. Pretty cool deal actually.

PM on the way.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

I only kept a few holes. Since I used a different gas pedal I used the old linkage hole to feed my wires to the engine.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Pictures of the P/b booster offset mount for Lugnutz. No that's not a brake fluid leak. lol

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

NOT all today but getting more done on 63 GMC V6 to 350 swap and a few updates like headlight relays, daytime running headlights (low beam on with key and switches to park lights when light switch is pulled on) (relays are so nice) built my own engine wiring harness, found a nice flex line for the HYD.clutch, installed horn relay, horns from a 80 Oldsmobile (behind headlights/grill)

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

welded and ground down my original worn out clutch bits

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Picked up a set of 462 heads to go with the short block from last week.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

I'm such a freekin cheapskate that I dismantled 2 fuel tank senders and made 1 that worked!
They were both in a junk pile, but one had a broken fitting, and the other had a rusty resistor assembly.
10 minutes later---Tah-Dah!!
:chevy:

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

You cant do that with the junk they build today LOL

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

they do look simular, but the other end of this rod isnt threaded its that same as the pic. i just shiwed one end for detail sake...

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

I ordered these knock offs and tried them on today. I just don't like them. They look a little better with the trim ring but still not that much. Back they go. :uhmk:

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Agreed. I think if they didn't stick out so far they'd look much better. But I have always wondered how they'd look on our trucks.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
