Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Nothing, but found this old Chevy grille (probably 29-31 based on what he had as a kid) in my Dad's storage container. Also brought back two boxes of old hub caps (some AD) and saw an old gas pump buried in the back.

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Awesome that's cool to hear! I needed that along with the vacuum windshield wipers. I have the rest of the pieces just not shown. Do you have any idea how much the deluxe heater would bring in this condition? Just wonder, i will Not be selling it so its all good.

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
All the insides seem to be there and intact. I just took everything apart so putting back together should be a breeze, Everything moves freely too so that is nice. Which is really surprising because the rest of the truck or cab is pretty much rusted out and falling apart.

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
I know they dont work well, but i like the "cool" factor, plus i would like to keep the truck as stock as possible. Maybe one day ill go electric, for now, vacuum!

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Lookin' good. A 3 or 5 axis laser works well for squaring the rear cross member to the frame. Does the Camaro rear cross member have locating pins like the corvette? You're going to like that setup. Good luck with the build.

Six hours banging, plastic & sanding. Hood is almost perfect. Some silver dollar size dents from shutting it to hard, no rust.

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
All you need to finish off the look is a set of "Truck Balls".... just stay out of South Carolina (http://mynorthwest.com/123/673065/An...South-Carolina)

Re: What Did You Do With Your Truck Today ?
Mocked up my rear suspension today once the control arms are in where I want them I will mount the coil overs. That is if I don't decide to do a a trailing arm set up.
