gmcdude · 11-20-2009, 03:07 PM

Well I put the carb. back on that I recivied back from Quick Fuel Tech. I checked and the previous owner had not even put a fuel filter on it yet,so thats my next thing to do before I fire up the newly rebuilt carb.

scotts62 · 11-20-2009, 04:59 PM

jgh64pkup · 11-20-2009, 05:45 PM

Rusteeze64GB · 11-20-2009, 08:10 PM

jgh64pkup · 11-20-2009, 08:48 PM

uhhh............moved it took the battery out and put it in the ferd and welded in some O2 sensors

MXmaniac · 11-20-2009, 10:13 PM

Started torching/knocking the rivets out of the rear bump-stops, and bought a piece of pipe to make a sturdy c-notch.

*LILRED66* · 11-20-2009, 11:46 PM

Worked on some more panels on Jon C's big window cab and packaged & shipped some more good, used '60-'66 Chevy truck parts.

Tx Firefighter · 11-21-2009, 07:51 PM

I had about 4 hours to spare before it got dark so I dove into the rear half of the farm truck. I replaced all the rear suspension...refurbished trailing arms with new bushings, 5 lug rearend, ECE lowering springs, etc...

I'm getting older and this stuff is getting to be hard work.

scotts62 · 11-21-2009, 08:41 PM

Cool! I like the stance of your truck Kevin

Thanks Scott. I'm concerned that the rearend will sink too low when I install the bed wood. I like my stuff to have a bit of a rake, about like it sits now. If it goes too low in the rear, I will have to lower the front some more.

I have new wheels in boxes in my shop right now. I should have them installed pretty soon.

budden · 11-21-2009, 09:14 PM

blocked the roof and hood got descoraged so had a beer

*LILRED66* · 11-21-2009, 10:05 PM

Headed to the shop to weld in some patch panels on Jon C's big back window cab. Hopefully, I can snap some better pictures tonight of our progress...oh, the anticipation!

ruffrida2005 · 11-21-2009, 10:13 PM

I got my new back half ready to bed welded in after I get some weld through primer.

hey that almost looks like my truck with the rake like that and the ralleys

shortbed70 · 11-22-2009, 10:58 AM

I'm sanding on my front fenders trying to get them done and trying to round up some friends to help pull my cab off...Not much luck with that!

*LILRED66* · 11-22-2009, 11:43 AM

Kevin:

You don't look as mean in the recent photo, as you do in your avatar! Nice work on your rig though. You do in 4 hours, what most guys do in 4 days or 4 weeks.

bubba327 · 11-22-2009, 12:57 PM

Charged the battery. Ordered more parts online. Pretty lame .....

Today the wind is howling and it is snowing again. My thankful thing today is ... A Corona box full of new 2009 Goodguys, Hemmings and street rod magazines made it to my house to read this winter before I pass them around to some one else.
No bad days here.
