day i brought it home

BB72CHEVKT · 08-22-2007, 09:23 PM

Sorry guys I am feeling pretty good and this computer is not helping!
That was the first day I brought it home. I have since had new wheel cylinders all around, all new drums, shoes hardware, rebuilt carb, all new lines
from tank to carb. Lost headace rack, most of grill guard and tool box. Replaced factory hubcaps and rims with 6 bolt rally wheels and new 31x10.5x15 tires.I am beginning to get sweet on this long bed while trying to not lose sight of the 72. Anyways later and tell me what you think so far.

BB72CHEVKT · 08-22-2007, 09:37 PM

Looks Great! I like your truck, it is the same color as my 72, it just looks way better.

I am going to have to check it out. It may be for trailer brakes as everything is stock including dizzy so it is not ignition related. I'll have to get some close up pics and maybe some one can let us know.

Looks like your original 72 highlander seat has flew the coupe, and in its place now nest a 69/70 cst (single scroll) seat. I have atached a photo of the seat that should be in there, it is in a 72 parts truck I have with the avacado highlander deluxe package including p.s., tilt, a/c and soft ray glass. Cb

Longhorn Man · 08-23-2007, 05:23 PM

That seat is in AWSOME shape!

BB72CHEVKT · 08-23-2007, 10:59 PM

Mine was orig a 3 spd manual, no ps or pb has has all that now?? I would bet my left n^t that is ths orignal seat cover. Anymore ideas of am I full fo bs?

BurnoutNova · 08-24-2007, 01:34 PM
