I should be fixing it tonight. It's been too hot and humid to even want to mess with it here.

kyull67 · 08-14-2008, 07:10 PM

I got my bed strips painted and ready to install. I found some cherry wood that I'm going to try and use, something different than the cookie cutter oak and pine floors.
Then I decided my garage floor needed some artwork.
Hopefully I can have the wood finished before the All Truck Nationals.
I'll keep you posted.

NICE Floor!

I think I need to do mine the same way. The oil spots seem so lonely

kyull67 · 08-15-2008, 12:28 PM

Thanks! All you need is overspray and a motorcycle!

kyull67 · 09-05-2008, 11:20 AM

No real progress. I wanted to finish the bedwood but I haven't had the time yet. I have no idea what blue bat is. This is all I could come up with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Blue_Bat

Nope, that's not it. Let me give you a hint. Think superhero.

No problem, But you can't beat a full set of Boyds for $400! Also if you like the wheels on the truck that Toomanytoys posted over mine, than you've got a SERIOUS style problem.

kyull67 · 08-21-2008, 01:58 PM

I finally finished my side mount spare tire...I decided it looks best on the passenger side though.

Ummm.....that's different....

**Palf70Step** · 08-22-2008, 09:13 AM

That is the kind of spare kit that will be REALLY useful down here in Mississippi and Louisanna.

You know a spare tire isn't even an option on some of the new Hybrid vehicles. All you get is a small compressor and can of fix-a-flat! Not even kidding.

Name one car that has that?? Toyotas all have spares except the non hybrid AWD sienna vans have runflats.. Thats ridiculous. Let me guess, ford has that kind of spare.

bobbo · 08-27-2008, 08:07 AM

My boss has a 2007 Honda Accord hybrid that has no spare. Was not even offered...

This thread isn't for discussion of stupid Hondas

But here are some pictures I posted on the 67-72 forum.

**lolife99** · 09-07-2008, 08:34 AM

kyull67,... I saw your truck at the Midwest All Truck Nats yesterday. Looks nice! What kind of gas mileage are you getting of of the six cylinder?

72BlckButy · 09-07-2008, 09:55 AM

Kyle, it was great meeting with you, and the truck looks awesome. I was wanting to ask the same question that lolife99 did, what kind of MPG are you getting?

And... you should know, racking up over 900+ miles in three months...
