Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I hit a coyote with it. The bumpers slightly bent, and the grill got dinged. It wont be hard to fix. The coyote however is unrepairable.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Short day at the "office" today. I finished wiring up the fan and sensor (thanks, Napa), put another coat of neatsfoot oil on the buckets to soak in over the weekend, ran a new and improved electrical line to the solenoid (header burned the last one on the maiden start-up), and basically got re-acquainted with the mess I'd left after a couple of weeks away from the truck.

Re: What I did With MY truck today!
Walked out to it @ 0-Dark:30 and turned the key , it lit right off and smoothly carried me through South Central Loas Angeles and to work , radio playing the News & Views , no drama but I'm insanely jealous of you guys who can paint & do rust repairs....

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I had the radiator on my 67 welded to fix two leaks. Installed it. Started it to check for leaks.
That's what I did to (one of) mine today.... |

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Met up with KrazyRay after work and scored some much needed parts. I'll actually be able to sit on something other than springs and roll the window down.
Feels like uptown. I won't know how to act!
