How can I get the Sticker of the forum?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I'm pretty sure all of the trucks I've had decoded as v8 trucks. I'd guess that this one has probably 1 1/2 to 2 inches more clearance than the others. I might have to take a closer look tomorrow for comparison.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I drove Belle to the Pull a Part. Last week I saw some black seat belts but didn't have a breaker bar to bust them loose..Today I was lookin fwd to getting them today but someone beat me to it..actually the pulled almost anything they could glove box door, orig am/fm radio, and wiring harness. But I did manage to pull a tool box out of what was left of the bed, needs alittle work and a white paint job so it matches my truck.
Talked with a couple guys out side and got a number for possible lead for a period correct tailgate for cheap.
I also started sanding a spare tire holder that I got out of a 67 last summer.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Just got back from mexico for a week and missed the old girl so took her for a cruise and went to help my buddy push in his 2nd Gen 55 Chev truck to get started on his build, going to be low and lots of patina, oh ya another small block to build. A great day, but back to work again tomorrow.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Hopefully today is the start of progress on my '67 swb stepper.

I finally had the time and energy to work in the garage. I have been pretty well under the weather so to speak for the last 3 months with one bothersome, but not serious illness or other.

I got the garage straightened out enough so I could work on the truck, actually it is rolling chassis with a '67 cab on it.

I started cleaning the front engine cradle.

The way I look at it any progress is better than no progress, lol.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I put new interior heater cables in, new control arms and knobs.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Got my hydroboost booster and new Willwood master cylinder mounted. Will attempt the brake lines next w/e.
Ran return fuel line from the motor back to the rear mounted tank.
Installed the front anti sway bar.
Installed the steering gear box that I had cleaned and painted last w/e

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Finally got the '70 running smooth.
Pulled the intake manifold, and found the gaskets were dry rotted. Good thing I got this taken care of, since the coolant passage areas were beginning to leak into the lifter valley.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Cut the dash to install my Christmas present.. I got a Pioneer CD player, well I got it cut and mocked it up. Got to hear one speaker play, got a tow call. I had to leave, so when I got back, I put it back in the garage. Will finish later, when I get some speaker wire.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

just a stock 327, stock exhaust, its a cruiser

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

The v8 4x4 trucks have the motor sit closer to the firewall so the oil pan will clear the front axle. That is also the reason the radiator hoses and the shrould are different.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

I thought I remembered reading that somewhere. It is definitely easier to work around the 2wd engine bay.


As for what I did to my truck... Put some Thrush glasspacks on the C10 yesterday afternoon. Got stuck working all weekend so I gave myself the afternoon off! I'll probably go to some Flowmasters or Magnaflows when I move the 383 over from the other truck, but this will get it on the road for now.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Took it out of 4WD HI and put it in 2WD HI... It's a good thing I dont have a front drive shaft ;) .... I think I picked up a MPG.... :)

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
 

Just got my newly painted front fender on even though it doesn't match its better than the old blue it was. Also left the dents in it on purpose to keep it looking like an old truck until i get the money to fix it right.
