Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Thanks, I give PUI credit for the stuff, I just installed it.
Yup. It is a pass-through. When my wife was young she could climb through it. There were beds in there, on either side. There was a black vinyl piece that snapped on for privacy. The back had curtains. They would camp sometimes with just the truck; they had a trailer as well.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Got the seat frame and metal door panels back from the sand blasters yesterday. Got em primed and painted. Today I’m trying to decide if I want to use my new lower foam or keep the old (it’s not too bad). I have the vinyl with cardboard backing door panels basking in the sun getting ready to glue back on the the metal panels

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Finished up the water pump change on the 70. Put in a high-flow pump. painted it the other day, installed yesterday and finished up all the misc stuff today. She works good and no more weeping. No we can drive again!! Was a bit of a pain as it was first time changing one on a factory A/C V8. Very strange hook up on these old ones. I do like the newer serpentine setup for ease of access. Hopefully good for another 20+ years.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Finally got all the dash stuff in. Your eyes do not deceive you. That is a functional Kenwood AM/FM/Cassette player. Also installed a Kenwood replacement speaker in the dash. Will figure out some rear speakers later. With no tank behind the seat any longer I have options. It occurred to me after getting the cigarette lighter wired up that my 20 and 22 year old kids have never seen a functional lighter like this. Need to clean the paint up a bit and finish up the antenna install.

Nice, a cassette player is not a bad idea, I still have some old 'rock n roll' tapes here.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Washed it, and peeled off some of the stickers on the back window. I'm not a fan of wearing my politics on my truck. Worse yet, wearing someone else's politics on the back of my truck. Yesterday, I ordered a new steering wheel, adapter, and quick release. I plan on making it as hard to steal as possible.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Fantastic truck, JT!
I didn’t do much. Guy came by to pick up some letters for the hood of his 68 and brought me a trade. Actual front license plate from the period for my truck. It’s about 1.5x thicker than new plates these days. Couldn’t help but put it on.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Decided our master cylinder is leaking, not the wheel cylinders.
And worked on teaching my son how to navigate the crazies.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Got to the engine today . Need to pull the pulleys and paint also need a new temp sender gage works but sender is DOA . Also the upper and lower alternator brackets are cracked so I need to weld them up. Man I love the Eastwood SCT tool definitely have gotten my moneys worth out of it.
