What did you do to your truck today!

[Gonepostal]

Had to replace a starter cause I thought it was bad only to find out it was a short in the positive cable that was on the headers wife said it was a shower of sparks as she was following me home then all went south both cables burned in half and no lights on a dark road is not a fun thing found a driveway and had to flatbed it home oh well time for a rewire the price we pay for our toys

Clunk, Bang, Pop, Pop...

Had some ball joint issues, but they are gone now.

Installing crossover steering as soon as I get it buttoned up.

oops. .. used tires are Bridgestones..... I type faster than I think sometimes.

New plugs, cap, rotor, NGK wires, air filter... and its still missing and hesitating under load... hmm.. maybe fuel filters next. Gotta buy a timing light too i guess.

Took my old door panels off and threw them in the trash. New ones coming from LMC. Lubed up all the door lock linkages and the window regulator. Things are much smoother now.

Installed my cpp c notch kit was pretty easy but a complete pain in the (_|_).



And yes the frame is up side down made it much easier to install.

A little gloss black to the frame.

bought some more gauges and a shim kit to fix my pinion angle. was to pick up my new d-shaft...but somebody shut my door that I left open (for a reason) and I overslept to pick it up! the family has been avoiding me all night!

I bought new 5" electric speedo and 5" 8k rpm tach. I'm most anxious about this gauge....a 3 3/8" dual gauge (not into the quads) for fuel level and oil pressure...



along with the matching 2 1/16" voltage and water temp gauges takes care of the usual 6 in 5 holes, but also have a trans temp gauge and been thinking of getting fuel pressure to finish out the 7 holes...or will put an O2 gauge I had in when it was carb'd.

[ryanroo]

bought one! its a 72 K20. probably use it for some parts for mine or who knows. it may turn into a shortbed project for my wife or i might just fix up some of the rust issues and sell it... i need a bed for mine and id like to use the front clip as well. who knows though

Replaced a leaking heater core, installed new hood hinges, adjusted my dash tach(was off by 1000 rpm) , dug out the old seam sealer in the gutters, cleaned the rest out with a wire wheel on a air powered die grinder( worked perfect) primed & resealed the gutters. Replaced the power steering remote 3/4 hose. Went over the truck with CLR & a Scotch brite pad ( surface rust areas) washed the rest. Now wait for tomorrow & do some more. Gotta love theese trucks! 71 C20 468 long bed

Installed my new radio and speakers. The radio has the wrong "badge" (GMC instead of Chevrolet) on it's face but I don't care. The radio will control a CD changer, play MP3's from a flash drive and an ipod.

Nice job. You have info on the set-up for the electronics. Seems I remember a thread....Hummmmm.....
They ever say "CHEVROLET"? I think my face-plate says "GM".

I'm still trying to figure out where to put speakers. I have a "dummy" stock radio in there now. But I have a good (working stocker) one ready for a "fix".
I pulled out the top speaker for about a hundred reasons. Mostly, my stupidity for jacking with all the mounts back there. Now, the hole is filled up with
carbon-fiber sheeting. I'd really like to go back behind the buckets on either side of the gas tank (Yeah, it's still in the cab).

Oooooh! I see you did that. Nice.

[bsteele]

I changed the carb and finally got to drive down the road and actually feel a little power. It goes tomorrow to a buddies shop to put on a set of double hump heads and work on the carb linkage.(it hung up on the way back to the house) Maybe a '71-'72 conversion on the pedal.

[tommys72]

painted my rallyes and put my new center caps on. they are take offs from a dealership in the mid 80s, damn near perfect...wheels look a lot better now...and i had help from my 9 month old daughter with the truck

[Expat_dude]

Loaded up, heading to drop my truck off for the body work tomorrow

Brought it to it's first car show...umm...mostly done!
People were clamoring over it! Many questions regarding Nate's handiwork. Didn't get the inside of the fenders cut yet, so it was still 2 inches off the ground.
