What did you do to your truck today!

[Avitech]

yanked the transmission and transfer case to change the clutch.

[pancho's 67]

Drove my LS powered 67 from Long Beach CA to Coronado Island on Friday. I drove it back home tonight to my home in Pasadena. Ran like a champ and even got to show a few imports, European, what old American iron with a modern motor will do.

Took the headliner off and painted it from blue to black, cleaned and resprayed the trim with silver to brighten it back up( because I refuse to spend 129.00 for repop junk). Cleaned the interior walls and sprayed the door panels also from blue to black, ordered some headers and gonna get the exhaust done next week!

Just so ~

Often as I'm driving my '69 C/10 Stepper home up the Pasadena freeway with it's wheezing 250 I6 I'll get into the fast lane before reaching Highland Park and whizz past those lowered crap cans and BMW's etc. through the Av. 64 underpass @ 75 + MPH ~ I can see their eyes big as saucers as they slow down and I don't .

These trucks really handle well right out of the box with just good rubber & shocks ~ no tire squealing , no drifting , nothing , it just goes where I point it .

I drove my 72 to work on saturday; approx. 50 miles round trip. This has been the longest trip since engine and tranny rebuild, It only has about 175 mile on it. It ran great; still think the carb could use some tweaking!! It really sucked down some gas!! Almost 7.5 gallons used. Is this normal?? I'm used to my daily driver, 91 Nissan sentra, 28 mpg.

I spoke with and emailed Wes from Classic Heartbeat about just how my cab to frame bushings go. Apparently I was right on the money!

I paid for a cab firewall patch panel and began the process of getting a set of front brackets for my grill.

50 ÷ 7.5 = 6.67 mpg.

Probably normal...That is, if you have a 552 with two fours and a blower.
Then again, I'm afraid to do the math on mine.
And, a 552 it's not!!!!

That is poor gas mileage alright, my 454 gets better in my 1 ton.

Had to replace a freeze plug in my engine, it was leaking over the starter What a knuckle buster that was....................

At the suggestion of a Forum Member, I bought this for after the paint cures:

The Ultrashield version.


Since her (wife's) car just got hit by a bunch of quarts of bad stuff when someone rolled over in front of us, and the
garage has only one good spot, RAT will have to stay outside after The Boss' car gets its $4,862 worth of paint work.

By the time her car is out of the body shop, my paint will have "gassed off".

I made a button set so I can manually shift my auto trans with just the push of a button.

[Del72Chevy]

Took this picture of it for the classifieds

[magwakeenercew2jh]

Cleaned up some more clear overspray in the fender wells and undercarriage (thought that was what masking was for), pulled the steering wheel to get it on the correct (straight) spline, and finally got a couple of decent shots in the driveway.

In other words, just playin'.

[In The Ten Ring]

Just put in for a set of grill brackets and other brackets I might need. Checked on powder coating vs. just painting the core support and inner fenders. I will probably just paint everything.

Called and found out my carb will be ready Friday.
