UPDATE: Progress on my 65
I've had my truck for close to 6 years now. its always had issues like most old trucks. Well for the last 4 months I've been on a mission to repair every mechanical issue in order to make the Brothers Truck Show. Everything from cracked brake lines, worn out center support bearing, cracked brakes, leaking wheel cylinders, broken turn signal switch, no suspension travel, and most recently a rear braking issue that I tracked down to the exhaust blowing on my rear axle. I still have a motor mount, trans mount, and thermostat to do before the big show. Enjoy some pictures of my progress.The first picture is when i just lowered it, the second is after I changed the tire size. -Jimmy-

Re: UPDATE: Progress on my 65
Here are a few pictures of chasing brake issues, cooling issues, dailing in the suspension, and some exhaust work getting done.

Re: UPDATE: Progress on my 65
I like the look of the cap as well. Sets a tone.
