Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Trying to wax and polish an 84 Jeep for the wife. The bird crap will not budge even with a light polishing compound.
I am finishing up with a coat of wax and selling this junk. Time to turn the efforts back the CHEVROLET!

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Good morning. I believe those are tail gate trunions.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
My new summit heads came last week, so today I masked up my block, heads, and oil pan, shot with VHT primer and then chevy orange rattle cans. Looks decent. Definitely better than it did! I don't remember why I wanted to paint it while it was disassembled, but there was a reason. But I can finally assemble, and move on to suspension, brakes, bodywork, interior, trans conversion. Crap...

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Installed the interior including the ACC carpet kit that I've had for 18 months!! Thanks paint jail! Belts and sill plates went in today too. Time to put a few miles on her to tie up any loose ends and get any bugs out.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Replaced both rubber fuel lines on my 67 chasing a vapor lock issue. The one from the frame to the pump I know had been replaced when I did the pump. The one from the tank to the frame... Original 1967, complete with undercoating and spring type fasteners. Here's to hoping...

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I replaced the tail/stop lamps in my 68. They were some a friend gave me, LED style, Chinese made. I got home from the local cruise in at about dusk last night and decided to walk around the truck to check the tail lights before putting it in the garage. And to my surprise I had no tail lights! I knew I had power back there as I had a license light. So this morning I pulled out two new 1157s and we're back in business. The LED lamps had come loose in the sockets. Both of 'em, go figure.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Installed courtesy lights. Simple up grade that makes a huge improvement to lighting in your cab. Thanks to Board member Roger Koop. Check out his wiring harness on the parts board.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
added a 1 inch spacer under my carb chasing a hot start issue, installed a daytime running light kit, and installed jute padding on my firewall. What a job that last one is, I should have done that first instead of last.

Got them from repops. Got the left firewall, center, and righ side firewall, they all fit extremely well, only had to tear apart half the dash to get them installed. Hardest part though was inserting the plastic plugs into the firewall holes. All precut. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Think I fixed the vapor lock issue, so I gave her a much needed bath.
