More beef jerky about 5 1/2lbs, 18F outside, while I'm working on the door wire loom and pin. 67 going to have interior lights come on when I open the door. P/W and P/L in the doors

**RodnRudy** · 01-25-2019, 06:27 PM

Nice job on the pin and wire loom install. Very professional

Taking mine for a drive tomorrow..

**Beau2a** · 01-26-2019, 03:18 PM

While driving down to pick up an underdash harness for my blazer from Randy500, my transmission decided it was time for a rebuild.

**3757chevy** · 01-26-2019, 03:22 PM

Dangit!

72 tigger · 02-02-2019, 06:35 PM

Did something I’ve never done before- waxed the inside of the bed. Also, installed my spare bracket and sandblasted and painted the spare wheel

**RodnRudy** · 02-02-2019, 08:12 PM

Got an inner door patch panel for my pass. door and found out the fit is awful so I'm just piecing the bottom of the door back together eliminating the rust with parts of the patch. Progress is slow but steady, it doesn't have to be that pretty since the ole girl's a daily driver.

66clow · 02-03-2019, 10:00 AM

Found enough dirt in the firewall to bury somebody lol. I continued on the body repairs to hopefully have this thing painted soon

cornerstone · 02-04-2019, 01:13 AM

I set the cab back on the chassis. Mainly because I was tired of leaving the cab out in the weather, fearing rust or hail. While it’s in the garage I hope to get the firewall smoothed out, and do some more mocking up of various components.

**RodnRudy** · 02-04-2019, 06:52 PM

Continuing on the pass. door repair I finished up the door bottom and got the ugly speaker hole filled as well. I'll tackle the door skin corners tomorrow and it'll be on to some quick body work and rattle can touch up

**RodnRudy** · 02-04-2019, 06:54 PM

Here's the last three pics of the door bottom repair.

70 shorty · 02-04-2019, 10:49 PM

Used emblems horse traded for, cleaned, painted and ready for installation.

Tore the 350 down to go to machine shop for a 355 build . Going in my 72 super Cheyenne. Not sure why photos are flipped

Always take your pics with your phone horizontal not vertical. Vertical pics turn 90 deg. when added to here.

**RodnRudy** · 02-05-2019, 07:30 PM

I finished up the rust repair on the pass. door today. Now it's ready for some filler, primer and rattle can touch up paint.

Never have liked intake noise so I took off the open element air cleaner and the stock single snorkel air cleaner really impacts performance above ~3K so I put a repo dual snorkel air cleaner assembly on. Not sure I like the how it looks.

I checked around and the best price I found was at truck and car shop in orange calif. $180. And they are local for me. I did find a slightly lower price on eBay but shipping made it higher

**NewBayColony** · 02-06-2019, 09:47 PM

Where? I may be making a pilgrimage down that way to buy some wood for a project I'm building. I could kill many birds that way, maybe. I'd like to have one, myself.
