I never have been much of a fan of the 67-72 series, but your truck is beautifully spectacular. Both engines look fantastic, along with the big meats and deep wheels on the rear. I love the look of the open engine compartment and all the side trim. Definitely show winning material. Nice job! |

What a difference a week end of back breaking work can make! The color and finish on your truck are exquisite!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Thanks Mark! I spent all weekend on it and got the first cut finished but I still have 1 more step to do tonight. Here's the other side. Good god I forgot how much work this is... I'm not sure how much body shops charge for this but it can't be cheap... This sucks! Haha! But it does look nice!

Replaced the exterior pitted door handles with fresh chromed repops. Replaced the cracked front signal light lens with repops as well. It's the little things some times.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Neither was today, but both were recent work on the truck:
Went from this battered seat with a cheap cover: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7276/7...1b6a8b2a_z.jpg To this nice tweed & vinyl seat I bought off craigslist(from someone who hangs out here no less): http://farm6.staticflickr.com/5522/1...cbb34234_z.jpg I also installed this tool box in the bed. It has wingnut screws through the bottom going into nut inserts in the bed so I can remove it easily. http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3728/1...4758f6d637.jpg |

Cleaned the leaves out of the inside heater box. Works much better now.

. . Wow thats horrible. ! . I need to do that |
Re: What did you do to your truck today?
If the heater looks like that, it might be worthwhile to pull the cowl vent panel and the vent outlets in the cab and clear out the plenum with a weed blower. Those leaves love to hold moisture and start things rusting.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
That new seat sure makes a nice improvement and looks a lot more comfortable.

Here are a few more shots of the seat before I cleaned it. http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7413/1...5ffbae34_z.jpg http://farm3.staticflickr.com/2819/1...ffa9d997_c.jpg |
Re: What did you do to your truck today?
No pics, but I scored a front sway bar and brackets from an '87 C10, and another voltmeter (the first one I tried replaceing my ammeter with is not working) and an entire front serpentine setup with alternator, PS pump, compressor, all brackets, and hardware for $60. Most components are probably going to need replacing, but at least I have cores, right? The serpentine setup is from a '92 5.7L. Hope it all fits.

Again, you scored big time, and I'd bet the components will happily surprise you as well! Sam |
