Re: What did you do to your truck today?

So this wasn't necessarily today... but it's been a while. Name:  164.jpg

This is what I asked for for Christmas- Duct tape and a muffler. I got a Thrush Glasspack, and I really want to know what it sounds like. To quote a certain song (brownies and a hug to whoever gets the reference), "Straightpipe roar, primer and rust all over the door"

Radio I mounted under the dash- I couldn't bear to tear up the dash. I'm just waiting to get a radio that fits in, like the USA 230 or something. Also note the LED switch on the left. My truck was originally a 3 speed on the tree, so the switch for the reverse lights were automatic. After the previous owner converted it to a floor shift, it no longer had that capability, so my dad rigged up the little switch to flick on whenever I put it into reverse (Side not: The reverse lights are really bright! Are they supposed to be?)

all the lights work! A few grounding issues we had to figure out, but they all work now Got a new tailgate that was bent just enough to make us annoyed for a while until we figured out how to put it on. Rattlecanned the entire back (not the tailgate, though) to look passable. It won't be winning any awards.

Bad picture, I know, but the rail was my first ever rattlecan attempt. Dad did the other side, although I sanded it. Slowly hand sanding the area below the bend and above the chrome bed piece.

And where we hung the spare hood. Kind of intimidating, isn't it? The spot was already open from my previous Miata's hard top.
