Re: What did you do to your truck today!

Well ;
It's part of the SMOG equipments so maybe ~ some states still want it there . If it's in good shape , and properly connected (takes at least three different hoses) it doesn't make the truck run badly atall . I found the full A.I.R. pump , branch manifold & gulp valve for my '69's L6 and have been seriously considering installing it just because ........... ![]() FWIW , A.I.R. pumps are bad for your exhaust valves but they're also dead simple to make look fine yet not harm anything .

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Took one side of the 327 heads off to see if I need to hot tank them or just rebuild the engine. Of course as I was using my breaker bar to loosen the head bolts, I turn to far and slammed my finger into the 50lb intake manifold I have sitting near the engine. Dang it smarts to heck!! LOL

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
no. if you had it there will be a bracket on the core or you'll be able to see where it was(provided it hasn't been repainted)..i not sure what years it's on or if it was state to state. i normally only see them on the 72s only or truck that have had the tank moved out of the cab. i have seen a couple of 71s from cali, but it's either been removed on the years i've dealt with or wasn't there from factory.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Stopped at MAR-K in Oklahoma City and bought all new mouldings for the 72. They are beautiful. I can't wait to get home and install them.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I filled my gas tank for the first time, by the time I got back in my truck gas was running out of my sending unit. I pulled it out today and silver soldered it to stop the leak. Now I just have to get the gas smell out of the cab.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I tightened the bolts that hold the steering rack to the frame.
A little bit every day, had the wheels off for over a month now. Maybe by September it will be rolling again. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
My 67 chevy c10 lwb has been a long 2 year project. So far we installed a 250/th350. 250 got new freeze plugs,intake&exaust gaskets,starter,flywheel,oilpan&valve cover gaskets,new oil line to Original gauges,Water temp to Origianl gauges, Th350 was rebuilt, 4 core radiator, 15x6 steelies, 69-70 automatic steering column/Cpp Linkage but kept my original 67 steering wheel on. We have the Original electrical but just patched up some wires. Next is hopefully a new Ignition coil and then I can move onto the brake work. Gonna keep that all drums for now. Someday disc brake up front.

Just to - day I went to Pick-A-Part on Blinn West of PCH in Long Beach and discovered SIX '67 ~ '72 C/10's & C/20's , several Customs , several rust free cabs , many dent & rust free fenders , inner fenders , core supports and so on..... all Long Bed Fleet Sides sadly . I considered the 1970 C/20 cab for my '69 as it's rust free and has A/C.... I got a nice set of original green factory seat belts , mine are badly frayed and sun bleached to the point of me worrying if they're safe , now I'll be golden once I wash these out , dry and install them . ALL these are V-8 rigs , PS , PB , AC etc. - it's all there . ![]()
