What did you do to your truck today! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Today we put the new poly cab bushings on my '67 swb stepper. It was quite a chore because the new ones did not come with the right washers for the top. We managed to salvage the old ones and reuse them.

We loaded it up on my son's trailer and brought it out here to the farm and put it in my garage. I will have to move things around a little to be able to work on it, but I think it can be done.

We got one of my grandson's '73 SS Malibu started and he drove it around the yard a little. Not long ago he got a good deal on it, he paid $600 for it. It does not have a lot of rust, just the rear quarter panels.

Then we cleaned and painted the firewall on the '71 swb my son is fixing up to sell some day. He sold his '72 Chevelle yesterday.

Then we finished the day by sitting in the garage and shooting the breeze about what to do tomorrow. All in all a great day working with my son and one of my twin 17 year old grandsons.

I cleaned up the back yard, loaded the junk into the 72 and drove it to the dump with my son-in-law. Had to feed him, took him to McDonalds
