3 days off of work... heater core, brakes and junk yard - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hey guys I got the next 3 days off of work and really make some progress on my trucks

So Monday I am planning on putting a heater core in my 79. I was wondering how bad would i be and what all is involved in putting a heater core in my 79 because it is leaking horribly. But any advice on this issue would be greatly appreciated

Tuesday I am putting brakes on the 77 and that’s straight forward I can do that no problem.

Then Wednesday I am going to the junk yard and pick up a sway bar for the 77 and maybe some other stuff if something catches my eye

i am so stoked to have the days to work on my squares!!!!

You're going to want to remove the inner fender well to access all the bolts on the heater/AC housing.
