in my 16 years of life, my dad said these things through out the years: "rickey can you help me install the driveline in my 68?" rickey what size is your driveline?" my dad has taught me that a "driveshaft" is called a driveline he also taught me that the rims on my truck are steel rims and that the rims that are on johns truck are indeed rally rims. i had a guy tell me that "steel rims" rims arent original for my truck, what he was really was saying is rallie rims arent stock for 67 72's....... well i guess this is what you get for being ina town thats not even on the map! lol (im joking it is on the map but we dont represent much for california like sacremento and fresno does....) yes it is camp peddleton.... some way or another he is going to a****er lmao |

Re: slik ricks 67 short wide CST
well i got in the 67, warmed her up, shifted her into nuetral which is actually drive since the linkage for the shifting is backwards and drove her to the end of the driveway! and at the end i think all of my tranny fluid went out of the torque convertor into the tranny so she wasnt willing to o reverse but i filled it up an will re try tommorrow!
and other big news is: this weekend i may get the cab! staurday or sunday (i really want to go early in the morning saturday) |
