Nothing...it's just too darn cold here in NJ! Tomorrow I will sneak my glove box into work and sand it down! Hey at least it's something! LOL

magwakeenercew2jh · 01-13-2011, 08:45 PM

Sold a "Blam-blam" I wasn't using. Drove 250 miles each way (to SF, CA) to collect the dough so I can buy some wheels.

lowrollin70gmc · 01-13-2011, 09:43 PM

Welded the burb's hood hinge back together. Much better having two hinges vs one and an arm/stick holding up the hood.

briankk60 · 01-13-2011, 10:03 PM

My new Auto Meter guages came in today so I installed them in my Bezel.

*project 67 sub* · 01-14-2011, 07:11 PM

nothing yet other than think about doing some work on it this weekend, or maybe today, we will see though lol. hopefully i can finish welding and plating the lower a arms, idk haha

ottc10 · 01-14-2011, 07:34 PM

i am going to ask because i dont know. what is a blam-blam?

drewskiren · 01-14-2011, 08:33 PM

Fabricated and connected my 1972 steering column to my 2001 power rack and pinion.

To see all the progress check out the Crew Cab build thread Young Frankenstein.

I really didn't want to take this to the "other gearhead" thing of mine. I shouldn't have said anything non-truck. But.........

Bought some upper/lower ball joints, inner and outer tie rod ends, and some drop shocks for the front end rebuild. I will start that on Monday. Chopped up a 92 s-10 blazer bumper to make a gravel guard that goes all the way across the rear bumper. Turned out good. Installed the toggle/kill switch for the HEI.

magwakeenercew2jh · 01-15-2011, 05:00 PM

Bought some wheels and tires.

Must've got what you needed from the 45. Post up some pics of your wheels when you have a chance.

Centered my steering wheel. It was off by a quarter turn. Then I replaced my left turn signal canceling spring. I was the guy whose left turn signal never gets turn off.
