Re: What did you do to your truck today?
went to the Goodguys show in Charlotte for some motivation/inspiration to get moving on my truck:
there were several 60-66s here are a few.... not a 60-66 but who doesn't love a B-model Mack...

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
We literally dropped the engine (woops), and we're getting it checked out this week. The stock one blew it's head-gasket, and it's hemmoraging oil now. So yeah, we decided to finally take the 'spare' out of storage, only to drop it in the process of putting it in the back of the truck (moving it from .a to .b ... Hopefully no internal damage was done, but we'll see. Hope not, cause it'd be nice to see how smooth the engine runs after the swap, if it survived the 4' fall.

chad64chevy,
fantastic progress on your truck. Is that a 3rd generation Camaro rear sway bar you have on the back? |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Drove mine to work....again. Even though she won't go very fast with her low gears, she sure is great driving on the highway. Can't wait to see what an overdrive tranny and some slightly higher gears will do.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Got the grille, bumper, etc back on after having some color put on it yesterday. Sorry for the blurry pictures. I don't know what is up with my stupid digital camera. I'll probably get some better ones tomorrow with my dad's camera.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Finished installing Dyna Mat inside the cab and mounted my instrument gauges. Also mounted wiper, headlight, and ignition switch. New complete wiring harness was done about a month ago.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Hey thanks Markeb01 and glad to hear from you. The dashmat I had in my closet over 4 years ago and finally on the last stages of the truck so I got an itch to istall it. I ordered a rubber mat to lay over the dyna mat and finally will install my bench seat. Looking forward to that since my seat been covered and put away almost 5 years ago. Almost done with her and will post pics of the build in the future.
