Jaws Trivia,
Your son might like this -In the first scene when the girl is being attacked by "Bruce" (Named after speilbergs Lawyer) and is being yanked back and forth she's screaming very realisticlly, it sounded so good they got the scene in one take, The way it worked is that 2 men were puller her back and forth with ropes tied around her waist and middle section, well to make it look better they did not tell her when they were going to start pulling, so she would not tense up, and they pulled so hard and fast it broke a rib, her screaming was quite real! |

In spite of ambient temps in the mid 20’s, I managed to get my front wheels painted with the help of a couple of heat lamps.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I started de-greasing the engine compartment, seriously there was 45 years of grease all over everything
Truthfully it looked better all the same color of greasy black :D Now it's orange and white and lots of rust brown I started to pull the rear step bumper but thought better of it Even tough it's crooked I'm still gonna drive the truck everyday feeding the horses and stuff Plus what do you do for license plate lights if you don't have a bumper... or a smooth bumper? |

Here’s a picture which dramatizes how straight the front spokes are compared to the rear wheels. http://img340.imageshack.us/img340/6800/tto15x5.jpg And here’s how they look after being painted black. The spindly look doesn’t show up so easily, but I still didn’t like them. I have a cool wife so the new wheels are my Christmas present. http://img140.imageshack.us/img140/4774/ttoblack.jpg |

Air vents, flow-through ventilation. Vents were from a modern Dodge ram.Sales Brochure Answer: A truck cab ventilation system and method which includes an air exhaust at the rear of the cab. An inlet vent in the front of the cab (kick panel vent) produces a positive pressure within the cab which causes flow-through ventilation air flow from the front to the rear of the cab when the truck is moving. . The exhaust vent includes flexible louvers of elastomer which are held by gravity in a closed position and are moved into an open position when air flows out through the exhaust system. |

Whats wrong with the headlights. If they don't work check the plug that is at the radiator support. If that is clean inside maybe you have a bad highbeam switch. Make a jumper wire to check that one out. Most of the problems with the headlights is the connector at the radiator support. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Installed my "CaptainFab Power Steering Adapter Plate" and moved the 64 and 66 outside for shop cleaning/organizing. The PO installed power steering, but the geometry was all wrong. Problem solved! The install was super easy, especially since the steering shaft was already cut down to the proper length and two holes were correct. Drilled two more holes in the correct position and mounted her up. Stitch welding will come when I tear the truck down for a frame off. Early 2011 I will start the process. I want to get the title work done before I do too much to her.

Turned out nice. There are times I wish I had kept mine and had it powder coated gloss black.

Spray bombed the interior (<$10). Much better than the flat black the PO shot on it, it is close to original and good enough for my beater shop truck. :truck:
Didn't do the doors yet since they need fuzzies and glass channel weatherstripping. So tell me gang, where is the OEM paint cut line at on the doors where it transitions from fawn to the cab color(s)? |
