67sub · 12-22-2003, 09:48 AM

I took all 3 doors apart and fixed the locks, squared up the radio hole in the dash ( p.o. hacked it up) for Kenwood cd player, wired up the kickdown switch for the trans, adjusted modulator and carburetor, cleaned on '72 disc brake front suspension getting it ready to install and went shopping with the wife.

I massaged my wifes box.

superchevy · 12-22-2003, 11:46 AM

I finally got Project Daisycutter's cab and bed dropped off at my buddy's body shop. Spent Saturday stripping the cab all the way down so we can get started on the bodywork and patch panels. Sunday, I worked on my work truck to get ready for the state inspection today; new plugs, oil change and a clean-up of the engine bay as I've been neglecting her of late.

Suicide-D · 12-22-2003, 04:01 PM

I moved my cab and all my stuff to my shop, because I'm moving into an apartment.

I welded on my buddy's cougar (back window area)

and I put bigger casters on my engine run/test stand, so I can get the engine hoist to roll under it. I still need to finish putting the guages and the radiator support on it.. but it is alot closer.

Mike Culpepper · 12-22-2003, 04:38 PM

FINALLY, got time to replace dist. cap/rotor/module(had truck about 8 months!), I'm amazed that the truck was running at ALL! The HEI brush/spring thing fell out of the cap, there was MAJOR burning and scarring of the under side of the cap. The truck runs alot smother and with more power now. Wonder what else was neglected on this truck?

Got the old seat out. Welded up some holes started putting Dynamat down before new carpet and seat go in.

Stout72 · 12-22-2003, 04:52 PM

Replaced both window regulators and all of the window fuzzies. Its so nice to be able to roll up the window now, no rattles and no (very few?) leaks.

kevin's 4X4 · 12-22-2003, 05:56 PM

We got all the bearings and brake acc. ordered for the front and rear axles on the 72. Fixed the heater on the 71, and kicked the tires !
