Re: What did you do to your truck today!

For the first time since I bought my truck 11 months ago... I actually used it as a truck. Hauled a bed in it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Finally got a new windshield installed. Glass company came out to my shop(10 miles from town) installed the windshield. $150.00 total. Took him 30 min and he did a great job.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I stared at it longingly as I stumbled past the shop on my way to work. I imagine I'll do the same when I get home at 10:30.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Rebuilt both drivers and passenger side wing windows. All new rubber seals and rivits. Took about an hour and a half per side. The hardest part was getting the window into the channel with the rubber seal!.
Here are some pics! |

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I bolted down the cover over the manual transmission. My cab was an automatic so I had to drill holes. I then tried to install the gas tank but realized it had some weep holes in it. Today I will weld up holes and pour in some gas tank sealer. Hopefully that should take care of that. Does anyone know why these gastanks behind seat were not painted?
