Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Built a new trans cross member for my six speed made it so i could run exhaust under it also cut out the rear cross member and welded in plate to run exhaust through it.Pay no attention to the (temporary) fuel lines i had to do that to move the truck, i plan on going stainless tubing.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Yesterday I reinstalled the tail light trim that came with the truck, not 68 correct but I like it and it's cheap like me. Today I reinstalled the door sill plates and hauled the rider to the daughters and mowed her grass. This old girl hauls!

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Nice truck, I wouldn't raddle can it, Maaco quoted me price of $900 with body work or $300 less without door jams. Want to two-tone mine so going it alone with paint from (Paint For Cars. com) Toms River, N.J. ...$75/$85 per gallon kit with everything. By the way mine is going to be silver on top with Midnight Blue on bottom...about like your color.

I put new valve cover gaskets on and some hooks in the stake pockets. Drove around some too with my dog.

instead of rattle cans have you checked out duplicolor they have a cheap already mixed paint system for a spray gun . it is only a small step better than spray bombs but its easier to get it looking even . it is laquer but should hold up better and look better probably around 200 bucks to do a truck our size . no mixing pour through a strainer right into a gun and spray |
