your truck sounds and looks pretty good

72BlckButy · 12-26-2008, 11:16 AM

Great sound, but I have one question.... why are you tearing it apart??? That thing looks clean as he**!

By the way, be sure to keep the factory markings on the firewall, it's a great conversation piece at a show.

What are your plans?

tim21391 · 12-26-2008, 01:30 PM

i am doing the rust repair... cab corners i kicked since it had rust bubbles bigger then my fist and it exposed expanding foam that previous owner tryed to fix... 3 out of the 4 cab supports are gone..inner rockers i hit with a pick hammer to expose a rocker that looks like swiss cheese.. inner rockers are shot... nothing left of those.. and seat belt was held in by expanding foam..plan is to fix all that.. and paint the whole entire cab same colors... i already got the frame, rear end, coils, shocks, and all that under the bed all painted up black..exhaust is painted flat black with high temp paint.. so everything is black under the bed..

Yep, that is factory writing. Alot of people like to see that.

Nice truck by the way. My son loves youre front license plate frame

tim21391 · 12-27-2008, 02:10 AM

oh icic dad thought my cab was out of a junkyard or something.. and thanks about the license plate frame.. i live in salina, ks and my dad is a trucker and he wanted to go to branson, missouri for vacation two years ago.. and we went threw joplin and i got to see a few trucks and i picked up that plate and frame.. i got the chrome shop mafia gun sticker on my back window as well.. thanks guys about mufflers i stuck those on last year..took about 8 hours of layin on my back to get them done right since i saved my existing pipes and that they were rusted onto my old mufflers...

tim21391 · 12-27-2008, 02:13 AM

thinkin about upgrading to some headers... good or bad idea?

sleepertruck72 · 12-27-2008, 03:43 AM

Nice looking truck ! Too bad you have the rust issues. It sounds real good and it would be a great idea to add headers ! She will purr even nicer. I love my Hooker Competition headers and would recommend them any day of the week. They will make your motor happy

tim21391 · 12-27-2008, 10:47 PM

ha yea my foot might also get too happy haha

sleepertruck72 · 12-27-2008, 11:32 PM

Yeah that probly will happen. It happened to me for a while. You'll get use to it and so will your neighbors

tim21391 · 12-28-2008, 01:22 AM

my neighbors already dont like it..i wash semis for doug bradley trucking.. not sure if they make it to cali but i work at 8 on weekends so when it was cold last year id go start it like 30-45 minutes before i left..and they would always complain to me and now they hate my dads harley with his aftermarket exhaust the pedal + motor + exhaust = music to my ears haha you k now what i mean?

LuckyHenriksen · 12-28-2008, 09:32 AM

tim21391 · 12-28-2008, 06:02 PM
