If using a I phone and you turn your phone long ways. Bottom of phone pointing right with volume buttons pointing down. Use the regular button for pictures and they should be right side up when you upload them.:chevy:

Used my '70 chevy driver for truck stuff. Man this thing pulls a load slow with the 411 gears, but it purrs right along.

May not sound like much, but after 3 years of the ol girl being laid up, it was a great accomplishment to drive her to town!

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

Took my 68 to my buddy's shop to have cab and bed pulled off chassis to have a little body work done and prep it to be transferred to its new donor chassis. Now I sit and ponder for 2 weeks trying to decide the next step. Almost tired of thinking about it....., naaa not really.

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

Looks good. Be patient and you'll be very happy w/the results.

Rebuilt the power stering box, noise eliminator for my radio and found out a guy that can add USB and AUXILIAR to an old stereo.

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

Replaced the old non-working radio that said "Civic" with one that says "Kenwood". And added 2 speakers. Just sitting under the seats right now until I replace the seat, then I'll find a permanent spot. Nice to listen to something other than wind noise.

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

Installed front and rear sway bars...and buddy bucket seats

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

Ok, probably will catch some slack over this. But for various reasons my wife and I chose this route...... I have been a tech for quite some time and am a huge Chevy fan and Toyota as well!! For those of you that see a contradiction, I'm not going to apologize, those that are married... will understand. We have a 68 long bed with potential that belonged to her grandfather and the chassis needed help and I needed a 4x4. We bought a 04 tundra and are putting the cab and bed on that chassis engine and drive train. Any thoughts opinions and suggestions would be greatly appreciated, good and bad. Our first time at this type of project... I'm used to it comes in broke, I fix it. But this is different, thanks. Have read many many posts before joining. I like the class of people here... So we would like opinions and suggestions.

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

are you going to use the toy powertrain also. I have never seen it done before but if the cab fits you would have one heck of a truck....I also have a tundra and love it .....hope it works out , love to see it done ....Don

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

Not today but last weekend I kicked her out of the garage so i could blow about a million pounds of dust out of the garage... Gotta get to the sheet metal shop and get a piece to do the repairs on the leading edge of the hood where the rust is from the trim that used to be there.

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

Yes sir and thanks for the support!! All engine, power train, and chassis will be Toyota. Wheelbase for 68 is 127", Toy is 128.3, extensive research shows this to be the closest to what we wanted without major mod. Toyota is TRD package with the V-8,and only has 115k on it!!

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

Installed a new fuel gauge, cleaned up some underdash wiring. Started to mock up the 73-87 volt gauge to replace the non functional ammeter.

For the first time in 10 years, the truck now has a functional fuel indicator.

Sometimes its the small things :ito:

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

with that motor it will last forever , and run off and hide from the best . it going to be cool , good luck .....Don

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

buy American

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

Not a big Toyota fan compared to old iron but like the idea, perfect powertrain that's bullet proof compared to American built and cool old style Gm body, thumbs up, hope it all works out. I like different projects that take a thinker to build. :cool:

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