Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Stood in the kitchen staring out it my frame rusting in the rain... the freaking rain that doesn't seem to want to stop.... wishing I could finish my freaking carport/shop.. waiting for this stinking rain to stop...

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Cold and rainy outside and I don't have heat in the garage (yet) so I worked a little on my steering wheel idea. I think I'm going to strip the cap and redo it but this is what I'm shooting for. The first pic is what I started with. I've repaired the cracks in the wheel and it's ready for paint. Tried some paint on the horn cap.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Thanks you guys. It is actually satin black, though. I'm going to paint the wheel to match. I think I'm going with the silver fawn interior with black seats and accents.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Replaced the worn out radiator cap with a new one. That pressurized the system enough that my radiator started leaking from both the top and bottom. I then removed the radiator and took it to the local shop for repair. Now I'm knee deep in all the old threads to determine what is the best molded upper radiator hose and transmission cooler lines to use.
I swear, lately, every time I repair one thing, two more problems arise as a result.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Misterc, they did make a 64 to 72 one piece molded hose for our truck ...but its getting hard to find, seems that everybody is going to the steel tube ( alumacoated ) with short jumper hoses for attachment, you may get lucky and find one in a small parts house, but napa and autozone don`t have them anymore, at least not that I`ve found.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I drove mine out of my shop without my bed on it and went down the street. And of course made my rear tires have a little less tread.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I finished cleaning up, running the wires and re-assemebling everything I had to take loose to replace my dome light assembly in my '65 c10.
The new replacement assembly and the clear lens are from LMC Truck and I am very happy with it. I can't always write that about LMC parts. Here is a photo of the new setup. -W |
