What did you do to your truck today!

[cokeb]

Thanks Eraser5, that is our plan of attack as soon as we can get wheels back on so the truck can go on the ground to lift from the frame.

Drilled and tapped the back of my tunnel ram so I finally have a vac port for a pvc. Carb bases and the ram had no provision for a port. Now I don't douce my valve covers with oil when I land on it!

[07SSSC]

Cleaned and painted the area that was covered/hidden by the fuel tank and the cab corners. Soap, water, then Por-15. Tonight the sound deadener gets layed down.

Installed new poorly fitting carpet, new Lokar shifter. Just started and broke in new motor, trans. and rearend. Long day.

Nohin, too cold and windy. Glad I enjoyed our 2 days of Summer like weather while it lasted.

[68GMCCustom]

today I pulled the rest of the rivets holding my passenger side rear suspension, removed the carpet, amp, floor insulation, seat, and unbolted the cab. Will pull the cab tomorrow....I've sweated all I can sweat for one day.

Today i removed the steel plate that was welded on top of the wood bed when the truck still belonged to the Air Force.

[Deggs]

Replaced the upper control arm shaft, drivers side, and repacked the front bearings.

Should be a little less "ricochet" effect down the highway now.

Found a hole in the collector of my header... Time for a louder radio

I got the B%#@H runnin!!! Ran her around the block too! so far no leaks from the dif trans or brakes. Gotta take it easy to break in the new gears (but I wanna roast the old tires off as it's been off the road for 3 years, minus two 5 mile drives last summer) New tires tomorrow, new gas lines and dual exhaust next week.

pulled the cab....everything else was off except for a few riveted items

[07SSSC]

Finished laying the rest of my Second Skin on the last 10" of floor and then put the rest on the back of the cab. Por-15-ed o few more spots too.

I finished blocking out the rear fenders and doors. Now I just have the hood and bed sides to repair.

It seems my projects have stalled out, two many projects too little time is the problem.

This time of the year is pretty hectic out here in the flatland of Missouri on the farm.

Also the next thing I need to do on the '71 is figure out where to buy and what carb the stock 454 needs. I have a couple of mechanics telling me different stories, one says go with Edelbrock and the other says go with Holley.

Hope you all have great progress on your projects and keep the post and pictures coming.

started yesterday repalcing my resistor wire for my HEI upgrade. while i was in there deside to replace another wire i didnt like then another wound up replacing all electrical wires under the hood one by one and eliminating wires not needed anymore like the TCS wireing. used the hot wire for that one on my electric choke. who needs a painless wiring harness when you have diagrams and all the help in the world on this site. thanks for everyones inputs and help. it is amazing at how much better it runs with the new wire on the HEI. smoother and better throtle response. night and day.

bought a tailgate. ordered bed cover from craftec. bought new side markers and parking lenses. finally bought a gas pedal. Bought a lunati VooDoo 60103. ordered summit racing heads. bought a holley blue and holley fuel pressure regulator.

That should have me pretty hooked up for a few weeks! WHOO HOO!

[swierker]

Installed late 90's 60/40 split chevy tahoe/truck seats to replace the sagging original. Now I have power adjustments on the driver side and comfy seats.

[vectorit]

Went out for shake down cruise around town, since I have been tweaking everything for a good tune. Got home, then mopped up all the oil that my T221 likes to drip.

Then drained all the oil out of the T221, and then refilled it with new oil.

I really need to get the T-case seals fixed!

Still trying to get everything sorted for the upcoming Brothers truck show!

[oldblue1968chevy]
