Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Finally found the time to fix my fuel pump problem. The LS engine is perfect under the hood and I drove it home from my work shop and it's sitting in my driveway.

Post Re: What did you do to your truck today!

I filled it up , topped off the oil , checked the coolant & ATF , washed the widows (BTW : try White Vinegar before using # 0000 or finer steel wool) and headed off to Yucca Valley , it's only a couple hundred miles , by the time I arrived there @ 10:00 AM it was 99° F & didn't get any cooler .

I had a nice breakfast @ C & S Coffee then bought and loaded up another old Motocycle I'll fix up for re sale ~ I'm gathering $ for my new cab (whenever I find one) and total re paint .


Pix are of the Moto after I loaded it .

In the end , it's nothing special nor new , just another old beat to shyte CHEVROLET Light Duty Truck out earning it's keep long after those wretched Brand 'F' rigs are all junked .

Re: What did you do to your truck today!

(Love seeing pics of that green stepside VWNate!)

I ran by Lowe's and picked up some springs to try and replace the broken spring on the parking brake handle. Either size worked fine so I picked the smaller of the two as it was closer to the original. Probably the easiest fix on this whole job!

I'm dying to go out and paint the gas tank but I'd better get other things done.
