What did you do to your truck today?
Whats up guys? So I did a search on this forum board and didn't see anything like this. But anyways I'm part of a forum board that is based out of Southern Oregon/ Northern California and they have a thread in there that is titled what did you do to your car today. It is pretty cool so I figued it would be cool to start one here. It can be as minor as an oil change or a wash job or as major as a cab swap and anything in between, its just cool to see what others do on thier trucks on a daily basis. Let me know what you guys think!
Cheers. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I drove mine out into the driveway so I could get to the Halloween boxes on a low shelf behind it. Then I backed it back in. After that I cleaned up the oil stain I left in the driveway.
More planned for tomorrow. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I worked on a customer's big window cab, put a pair of radiator extensions on a '64 GMC, cleaned up a pair of passenger side front fenders and shipped 12 packages of various '60-'66 Chevy/GMC parts.
I will be working on the '65 Chevy big window cab tomorrow and shipping some more parts. Thanks for starting this thread. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
First I walked around it, then stared at it then went back in the house to list stuff for sale so I can afford to finish it. Then gathered up some pieces that need to be painted black. Also working on a wish list for Moultrie GA swap meet Nov 20-22.

Just picked up a 62 C10 for my son a few weeks ago. Opened up the 12 bolt rear today to find fresh Yukon gears, axles etc. Some new lube and it's ready to roll.

I got my rear leaf springs re-arched and back from Pohl spring works today, put them on now it sits level again. The fella from Pohl said there was an extra leaf in one side, must have been a PO fix it was 2 1/4" higher on one side??? Life is good again.---Vernski:metal:

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Today i just drove mine around. But last Monday i took mine to Monday Night Football here in San Diego. We had a little tailgate party out the back, and it was a huge hit with everyone at the stadium. One drunk dude told me it was the coolest truck he had ever seen, and was it a '74? Another compliment from a chick who asked me if it was a '54. 20 year span! but lots of fun and lots of compliments. Just wish my Chargers hadn't choked damn-it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I put a few more miles on the Burb today going to the shop and a couple errands and back home. Will be doing it again tomorrow since my regular DD needs a PS pump. Trying to enjoy the Burb as much as I can before the snow flies. I don't like to drive her in the winter anymore......friggin deicer.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Lmc parts arrived yesterday. Headed to the A-zone to pick up a new flex plate I ordered. Then maybe I can take the transmission back out and remove the 168 tooth flex plate and put on the 153 tooth that I should have put on the first time!
It had a 168 tooth flywheel with the three speed and I never thought that the change from the manual style starter to the automatic trans style would take the smaller flex plate.Got in a hurry and forgot to check. oh well- stuff happens |
Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Last night I measured my truck for the new driveshaft that I need to finish my 700r4 install. Today I went over and ordered the driveline with yoke and u-joints for 220.00. Oh! and I spent some cash at Jegs for the TV cable bracket and geometry corrector for my carb. Some day I might be able to drive this thing! But first I'll need a cab, bed, some fenders maybe a hood and doors. But damn the frame, engine and trans looks nice!
