Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Not sure if it's worth the trouble, cleaned up the aluminum trim with steel wool. It's all trashed, front fender arch looks like it was driven through a barbed wire fence.

Can't tell with that image, no. Too poor quality and the angle is wrong for comparison. But... it does look good to me! -klb

The transmission was mostly clean already. I sprayed a reasonable amount and let it sit 4-5 hours. Wiped, brass brushes on a Dremmel, wiped. Sprayed some more and buffed some with fine steel wool, whiped. Sprayed a pinch more, wiped and done. About 1.5 hours is all, nice stuff.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
Every little bit helps. The little things are what make a well kept daily driver stand out. I repainted the tailgate letters on my faded tailgate with a spray can and some tape. Made the truck look much better!

They both look killer!!! I’ve got one too, but mine won’t be so original underneath.

Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter
If you don't have one yet, get one of the books on rebuilding Q-Jets. The sheet that comes with the carb leaves a lot of necessary information uncovered.
