Re: It’s Just A Pickup

More room to work on the truck

Livrat (a forum member) came over this weekend and pick up the old eng and trans it’s a good thing the weather was better some what.

It sure is nice being able to find another forum member that lives close that can use the parts that I’m not going to be using instead of just taking them to the scrap yard. Thanks to the forums ability to post items and get in contact with others I definitely have more room to continue this project.

Just finished putting together the “how to” Speedometer Calibration with a 700R4 Trans” and it’s posted in the FAQ section of the forum http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=322481

I’m from the old school of hot Roding and liked to do as much of the work on my trucks as possible (maintaining, rebuilding, and modifications) and find “how to’s” a benefit to me in the past to accomplish this.

I posted a how to “V Belt Pulley Alignment 101” http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=318240 a while ago and have received no feed back Pro or Con or that it was of any benefit to any one. Not wanting to waste forum space and post things that no ones interested in or might fall into the category that every one knows that. I will refrain from posting any more “how to’s” not wanting to waste forum space or other member’s time.

I for one use the FAQ section regularly and have just gotten into the build. I'm sure I'll be running to the laptop during work on the 70 to get answers to things I can't figure out by the manuals. I think many use the FAQ but never think to post comments. I for one just really started putting positive feedback on posts I found helpful. Plus, you can only add one to a member at a time so that limits how much people can post positive reps as well.

I for one am all for as many FAQ's and "How to" posts as you can come up with. If you feel it's too much time I COMPLETELY understand that, but if you're just worried you're wasting your time because no one is using it, I'd tell you you're mistaken there. We do use it, just don't always show the appreciation we should
