Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I've seen some really clever cab rotisseries, but I'm too lazy/impatient to build one, so I did this and primered the inside of the cab:

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Started sanding on the body, I guess this means I'll have to paint it for real now. I havent painted any thing since the early 80's and all I have is a showtime hvlp ,going to be interesting if anything.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I finally got around to putting on the front swaybar. If I would have known that it would make that much of a difference I would have put it at the top of the list.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Finally got my gas tank in the rear of my 64 short stepside. Ran out of daylight before I could finish plumbing and hear her run again. But I'm off until Tuesday ! Old Flo will be running before the weekend is done !!

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Alan - nice bed.
I stripped wires and soldered & crimped connections on my '65 c10... 4 or 5 patches or replacements altogether. I only burned myself twice with the soldering iron! hah. nothing serious just a 'OW-THATS-HOT!' moment toward then end when I was tired and ready to be done with it. Wired it up, put old head light switch back in... cleaned up, took a nap, went to the cruise in a way over in Dallas, GA in the truck... took those photos, ate some bbq and then walked around some more. Then I eased on back to the house. -W |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Well I took ol'blue out for a drive, drove about 30 miles .. Confirmed that the radiator and fan work properly .. I actually looked at a 62 chevy c10 , if anyone is looking for such a project this one has all the lower cab work done... it does need a roof.. but the worst is done... Yeah I know , like I need another project ,as if 2 trucks (3 cars ) etc isnt enough..anyways the engine I put in the truck runs OK,but it does need a bit more oil pressure.. I will worry about that when I get the other truck running and this one goes under the knife...

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Actually this was Saturday...
Clyde needed some new sneakers so I decided to also put the powder coated wheels on there too. I got two tires put on the two PC wheels, polished the trim rings and the center. Before... and after

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
It has been on there for the years I have owned the truck, and at least the 2 years my buddy owned it, and it was still somewhat soft in the middle!
Here is a shot of starting to pull it out of the Passengers side. I ended up resorting to drilling holes in it, then breaking it out, and repeating over and over!! |
