Second coat of epoxy primer on mine this morning. :ito:

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

Thanks.

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

Put the hood and grill on in profile.

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

Bought some YOM plates for my 67. Found out in CO you only have to run YOM plates on the back and the registration is free. Pretty killer.

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

Installed L6 250 real air cleaner, not some chrome crap.
Replaced all windshield washer hoses and tested system.
Final step on hidden sound system.

How did the handling feel after the change?

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

Engine is looking great...who's electric fan setup are you using? I'm thinking about converting mine.

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

I'm running a flex-a-lite dual fan set up that I could find to cover the radiator. i have no complaints, it keeps it running cool and is trouble free. My set up has been on the truck for several years, I just retorted the wiring to clean up the engine bay.

Started a new Truck Fund....

My daughter came home from college this weekend and brought me BUMBLE-PIGGYBANK, complete with seed money.....

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

Cool piggy bank, I too have my twin girls in university, twice the cost all my life, never ending but whatever it takes..

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

Well, it wasn't today, but I've made progress on the engine. Turns out the valves were not the issue, the lifters were, so out they came, along with the stock cam.

New cam should arrive tomorrow, and then it's on to the heads.
The double humps still need a rebuild, but I have a set of TBI heads that will work for the time being, just need to clean them up and put them on.

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

Painted the bottom of my cab with Kirker Inferno Red Metallic with clear on top. Used a cheapo Harbor Freight gun. The picture makes the color look burnt orange for some reason.

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

Your cab bottom looks better than some guys cab top. :lol: Looks good.:metal:

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

Filled in the tailgate latch notches today.

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

Mounted the cab on the frame for the last time today.

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

Oh yea that a nice looking engine there.

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

I got a little bit done today.

I checked into getting the front bumper painted. I can get it sandblasted and powder coated for $125.00 but I'll have to bring it in to the paint shop for an estimate.

I might do that Friday morning on my way to pick up the cowl from the epoxy primer guy.

I also cleaned up some screws and asked on here about removing and replacing the heater box caulk.

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

Added a fresh tach to the ol girl today

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

Added a new rear bumper and new bumper brackets. It doesn't seem to look right though. Brand new premium bumper. Doesn't it look like it is angled down? Is this right?

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

It does appear to be angled wrong, doesn't it. Beautiful Truck!!

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

Any chance it is a Fleetside bumper? Or brackets are on the wrong side R&L. Never mounted a Stepside bumper, but that doesn't look right. Beautiful Truck!

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

That would be my guess. It took me FOREVER to get my back fleetside bumper aligned with a new bumper/brackets. Fitting around the NLE tank and porterbuilt rear frame brace didn't help either.

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

Doing the front wheel bearing maintenance today, Every year, Ugh!

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

I found a crack in my passenger side ram horn. I bought a decent set locally for $20. The only issue I ran into was the new set was the alt. mount type. Instead of modifying the alternator mount to work, I modified the manifold.

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

A couple more.

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

Started the fuel line on the new motor.

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

Added 2 inch blocks to the back courtesy of way2lo2. Now 3-7 to level it out.:smoke:

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

Looks nice!

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

AOD92 I can't see it??? PICS???

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

MY BAD!!!! I see it I see it!!!

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

man your garage floor is cleaner than my truck . I like the security system too

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

More done today than in a long time!

I checked on getting the front bumper sandblasted and painted.

I called but could not reach the media blaster guy that has my cowl.

I drilled out the rivets on the heater box, removed most of the old caulk, washed the heater box, and have some of its internals soaking in Evaporust.
