Re: worked on the 67 ALL DAY !
I hear ya. I've been under my 70 & 83 (mostly) all day doing tranny swaps. I feel like my arms have been beat with a ball bat! But I am happy. Truck days are always good!

Re: worked on the 67 ALL DAY !
been doing bodywork all day on my 67. It's been too hot for me to work on it the last few weeks so it was a great day, more of the same tomorrow, hopefully start laying some paint this week after work. I can't wait to get ths thing back on the road. 4cyl s10 isn't cutting it.

Re: worked on the 67 ALL DAY !
I spent most of the day on my truck too. Of course only about 2-3 hours was actually working on the truck. The rest of the day was spent making a parts run, tool run then back to the store for the parts that actually fit!

Re: worked on the 67 ALL DAY !
I worked on my truck for about 5 hours today. Got the new motor in place, almost got to fire it up for the first time but the rain did not let that happen.

Re: worked on the 67 ALL DAY !
I love that truck. I'd like to see it up close some day. I know it makes them happy when you give them good treatment.

Re: worked on the 67 ALL DAY !
Will you be at the same motel? Maybe I'll get a chance to actually stop in and chat this time instead of just cruising by and waving.
![]() Are you coming for the Shades or the Grand? Speaking of cleaning, I need to get started cleaning and detailing mine. Sept. will be for here before I know it. ![]()
