Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Fitted my 'UK legal' age-related number plates and took the bench seat out ready for the mother in law to retrim using the mexi blankets i've got.
Sprayed some WD40 around the elctrical connections to help keep the damp out due to our ****ty weather, but now the bloody truck wont start, no click from the starter....nothing........ :( Two steps forward one big one backwards. |
Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I only had a couple hours to work on the truck today, but I managed to get the passenger side cab corner welded in.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Nice going RaceCougar....I'm in the floorboard fixin stage as well. Every time I wire wheel I find another area. Spent this afternoon grinding off 1/2 inch of bondo on the rear part of the fender after I patched some more passenger floor board areas. Big thanks to mig and grinder and clamps and hammer...I couldn't have done this without you.

Mounted my freshly painted rear bumper and then removed it to trim a little more off. I had trimmed it before but realized when I put it back on that the trim job I did was based on it being slightly bent. When I straightened it out, it needed a shade more trimming.
Also took it to the car wash and sprayed off everything after a good dose of oven cleaner. Mostly concentrating on the back end. Next up is working on bed wood, so I am going to take off the bed and wire brush the frame, trailing arms, etc. and then paint with Rustoleum Rusty Metal Primer and Satin Black. |
Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Oh, and I also added grounds from the taillight housing and the reverse light housing to the frame. Next is to move forward from the back end to the front and go through the old wiring rat's nest the PO has under the dash and hopefully get it all working correctly. Should just get a new wiring harness, but a little short on funds right now, so am gonna do it this way. I figure it will be a good education for when I do get the new wiring harness.

I have replaced most of my lighting with LED's. I started changing out my headlights with some from AutoLoc and Johnny Law Motors. Tomorrow I will finish and swap my interior lights with LED's.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Replaced the glove box lock and striker, ignition tumbler, and door locks. Took a bit of grinding to get the door locks in and functioning properly. Also removed the shell.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
It was yesterday, but I officially made this an "OFF FRAME" restoration.
Suspension has been done for a while now. Started in the back and worked forward. Gonna open up this 230 L6 and see if it's worth saving. Bad compression test. See more on my BLOG. http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps88a7f977.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps96f58609.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps178882db.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps26eba613.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...psae458378.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...ps9545a295.jpg http://i618.photobucket.com/albums/t...psdde3e0ee.jpg |
