Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
Does this qualify? Added Angry Bird eyebrows. Must be a cool thing to do, all the custom Jeeps have this look.

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
OMG it blows my ever lovin mind to think about what the have for these trucks today! I got mine 45 years ago, if someone would have told me even many years after that someone one day would make the stuff they do like that frame or new steel cabs and fenders I would have fell on the floor laughing it was such a ridiculously stupid thought. And here it is, amazing!

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
I installed the window fuzzies today. I guess they're an anti-rattle device? In the past I've glued these on, but this time I riveted them.

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
Hmm, pretty dead on this thread lately. Is everyone on Spring break?
I got my driver side window channels installed, including the felt glass runs, inner fuzzy and outer rubber sweep. I also painted the inside window trim but i'm waiting for it to fully dry before installation. I also made some window rollers out of closet door rollers. It sure is nice to have my windows go up and down so smoothly and not leak air.

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
Is that what they call this? Spring break?
I'm scoring the ground for grass seed, spreading seed, fert and straw, changing oil in the grocery getters, cleaning the pond filters, staining the deck... I think the truck is still in the garage but I'll have to check.

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
Looks super. What's holding it up there - glue? Velcro?

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
All I did with the truck was check my front wheel bearings I got, rollers, looking good. But then I got my brothers 39 Ford dash shot today WHOOO HOOOO! It hit me while I was doing this how hard it was playing out on my mind and how hard a work it was. Well it hit me that I hadn't sprayed anything bc/cc like this in 20 years!
Yeah, it wrung me out! Brian

Re: What did you do with your truck today, Part 3
tried to track down my coolant leak. I thought it was a hose clamp but it looks like my water pump has crapped out. its 17 years old so I guess I got my $35 out of it. im dealing with a bad radiator on my daily driver. basically everything I own is leaking coolant right now.
had a nice drive though. |
