I finally remembered to put a 4A fuse in my ammeter. Better take the rest of the week off now ;-)

New valve covers, not a lot of options for center bolt vortec heads.

72c20customcamper · 07-30-2024, 08:54 AM

All loaded up for the Carlisle truck show swap meet not bringing much this time . Nice not having to worry about stuff getting wet out the new cover on

Yes I believe to official start is Thursday for the swap meet and Friday Saturday for the show I get there Wednesday much easier to get set up without people walking around . I’m still debating whether or not I will tow out the 68 stepside

I have three spots . Usually it’s crowded up with the trailer and my other trucks to the point it’s a little hard setting up the tent . Last year I had three trucks here . Hope to have all 4 next year

Test fit time, hopefully it will look as good as it does in my head.

72c20customcamper · 08-02-2024, 06:14 PM

Haven't heard much from Husky Tim in a long time. Do we reckon he's passed away?

Added some bling

Nice Bowtie.

Some years ago I looked into the possibility of using LEDs inside the blue lens on the 69/70 Emblem. It's do-able, but I don't have a truck to put it on. Just the spare hood.

nice ride.....

kcmarkd · 11-14-2018, 06:23 PM

Replaced the alternator and re-did the shattered connector plug. While I was at it, I saw that the fuel pump was squirting gas from the weep holes in the top of the mechanical pump. So, got a new pump and will be doing that next.
