What did you do to your truck today? - Page 20 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*LILRED66* · 12-22-2009, 10:04 AM

We did some rearranging...to make room for more trucks inside the fence, we had a 40' container delivered and set, to put sheetmetal items out of the weather.

I know i need onw.. the ear on my 750 dbl pump just broke off. The carb is great but the base is screwd.

**nbrfd007** · 12-22-2009, 11:39 AM

Put a master/clutch cylinder on it. Getting ready for swapping the carb to a 500 holley on my 305 V6.

I freak'n broke my turn signal switch! guh now one more thing I gotta pickup from the shop when I go get some other items. =(

ruffrida2005 · 12-23-2009, 04:52 AM

Well i looked at my frame again, it's not doing any tricks like I thought. I got my rebuild kit in for my Demon, it cost me free dollars.

The 750 is for sell $250, never had gas in it. only set on the intake!

63deluxfleet · 12-23-2009, 09:36 PM

Filled her up...hopefully not for the last time, but probably if insurance don't pay for my hit and run total....
Took a long drive and tried to enjoy her a lil...

Gage it's not easy for older guys to stand on there heads an do wiring under the dash. I'm ok if I take my time and I've taken my blood pressure pills.I'm speaking of myself only.

Today I started the day off working on my poly bushing sleves. I made them out of solid stock because I couldn't find any tube and I'm that cheap!! Then I built a new cross member because I wasn't happy with the way my old one was fitting and we screwed up some how and it ended up being way too high. I forgot to compensate for the 4'' tubing that it would be notched into. Anyways I built a new one out of 2x3 tubing and welded that up and removed the temporary support for up front. I also made some bag mounts. Next week I'll make my lower bag mounts and start setting up my links. Anyways pics!

ravens65 · 12-24-2009, 09:11 AM

thats no average 15yr old to do his own wiring!! most of them are to busy w/ video games to learn this stuff!! its not as hard as I thought, just seems overwelming @ first

glendale · 12-24-2009, 08:03 PM

painted a door and installed my door panel.

*lakeroadster* · 12-24-2009, 08:11 PM

Extended the '67 Camaro dash by 5" that is going into my 65 SWB SS. More pictures and tech. data in my build thread, listed below.

truckdrivinsob · 12-24-2009, 09:50 PM

Got the motor pretty much buttoned up. Ran fuel lines made battery cables. Hopefully fire her up tomorrow ! Then on to plumbing the compressor and valves. Then mount bags.

Had to drop in a new HEI, the old one died last Friday, 3-miles from the house after a 250 mile trip, got towed the last three, the old HEI was `77 vintage all original, I would have rebuilt it but the centrifigal advance was rusted up tight, coild not get it apart. Kinda wondered why the last few months it wasn`t quite right....

*lakeroadster* · 12-26-2009, 05:57 PM

Added sheet metal to the strectched'67 Camaro dash that's going into my 65 C10.

shortbed70 · 12-26-2009, 06:29 PM

Looked at it while warming up from shoveling snow for the forth time this yr. Wouldnt be bad but the wind likes to blow right up against my garage and I cant get out of the driveway...

monolith · 12-26-2009, 08:40 PM

Seafoamed both running trucks(the 64 and the 66) Picked up a '60 hood and bench seat.

brandon283 · 12-26-2009, 09:34 PM
