What did you do to your truck today?

[66-PMD-GMC]

I threw away this POS EZ power steering adapter I bought because it didn't even have the right bolt patter for the P/S box I was using nor did the bolt holes line up on any of the 11 P/S boxes I checked in the wrecking yard. I should have bought one from Captain Fab...
I am just going to find a 69-72 lwb frame to use on my build.... changing the frame horns and rear cab brackets must be easier that playing games trying to put P/S on my 66...

[Byronic]

Filled 53 screw holes and sanded and sanded and sanded

installed a roll pan on the truck today

[T2vigil]

Removed the fusable link wire that should have been removed when the PO installed HEI.

[BC Pappy]

Hand wash and Turtle Wax. Enjoyed spending the afternoon with the "ole girl".

[late68]

Got the front end of the truck painted. Now time for re-assembly.

[dean jendro]

Primed, taped and shot the bottom of my '64' with Raptor.

[Slow Build]

Got a parts truck or future build for my 6 year old daughter. My wife won't be happy when she gets home (I told her I was buying a frame).

[CdM]

Its a frame, with some extras

Prep. on small parts for paint.

[AllenKarber]

I'm running baby! Just gotta bleed the brakes to help the mushy pedal. I haven't driven my truck since last July. Next weekend is my 13th wedding anniversary,and my wife I went on our honeymoon in my truck! It will be cool as usual to be out and bout on our anniversary in the truck.

It was good to just sit there and listen to the cam thump and bump!

[Jack's Garage]

Put new wheels on and moved it to the house

Just tell her you bought the frame and they threw in the rest of the truck for free. Nice score.

That is actually the truth. I can't complain about getting close to a whole truck for $100. My wife took it pretty well. My daughters reaction was priceless, she crossed her arms, put the scowl I on her face expected from my wife and just said "Oh daddy", turned and walked away to tell mommy what she thought of it. Other than that, and my white dog walking under it in the garage and coming out with a gear oil stripe on her back from the tranny, it's gone fairly well. This is the truck that Jerry Moss was selling parts off of. He still has a few other parts. He is into the 67-72's and wanted it out of there. I am happy to oblige.

I will be working on the '65 Chevy big window cab tomorrow and shipping some more parts.

Thanks for starting this thread.

doyou know where i can get a anchor pin for front drum brakes?the pin that bolts into the spindle?

[raic65]

Pulled the rear end out of a 69 LWB at the local pick n pull yard to replace the rear end in my 66 LWB that is about to go. Now praying this new rear end, I mean used, doesn't howl like the old one.

[exoticmetalworx]

I remember that look when I told her about buying my son's '69 project truck. But the deal we made is she can keep her mustang and I keep the two old trucks. The only set back is her car can be driven anywhere and the only time the trucks move is with the help of my trailer.

I bought this truck about a month ago and I finally got the old stuff cut off and finished the ECE 4-6 drop kit on the back. Hopefully the front will go a little smoother. I'm putting the disc brake upgrade on the front with drop spindles. Here a few photos.

[fryer1979]

The drop came out good man.

[jimmydean]

Should have my tach face this week and I still need to find a clock. Wife says I should keep the numbers green, still not sure.

[Chvyman1975]

well, got it started for the first time since 1990 yesterday. today i just started it once to make sure that i wasnt dreaming. been looking for parts online mostly all day....oh yea...for a truck that sat in a field and hasnt been ran in over 21 years it sounds great...

[66farmer]

I like the grill, are you going to put it on your truck if so will it bolt up. What do you think it will cost to chrome it.

[CdM]
