I drove it to work today. When I got home I started sanding on the front bumper. Hopefully I will get the bumper painted white and reinstalled by this weekend.

dfwright · 11-30-2009, 11:51 PM

I sandblasted the rear shock mounts today.

**Dieselwrencher** · 11-30-2009, 11:51 PM

Today I put more parts in the cab of mine.

dfwright · 11-30-2009, 11:58 PM

Double post...

white 67 · 12-01-2009, 12:04 AM

Today I put my feet up on a tire and put beer cans on the frame while i watched tv in the garage.

67ChevyRedneck · 12-01-2009, 12:49 AM

Opened the garage door and looked at it, then the cold blast of air hit me, and I went back inside and watched The Saints whoop the Patriots.

I hate winter. I hate cold weather. If it's below 70 it's too cold out.

fatboy7079 · 12-01-2009, 01:52 AM

backed it out the garage. Then got on top of my rust free cab in the corner of the garage. Droped the x-mas tree on said rust free cab/ladder. MERRY X-mas to me a dent

dan42 · 12-01-2009, 02:00 AM

Gave it a pat on the hood - I'm driving the '70 while I'm redoing the bedwood in my '67. It's sitting in the garage waiting patiently for me to get to it.

1968CHEVYC10 · 12-01-2009, 02:07 AM

just looked at it, then worked on bending and shaping new brake lines till I broke the flare kit, then off to ebay to find a good one. moral of the day... don't buy cheap tools.

mclairmo · 12-01-2009, 02:13 AM

Got a used dash/guage cluster in the mail today and opened the box. It was dirty as heck but looks ok. Was only $15 on Ebay including shipping. Gonna sell my speed warning/tach dash and install this cheapy one in its place. I don't need speed warning or a tach. It's a truck.

cppursell · 12-01-2009, 02:28 AM

I took out my instrument panel out of my '67 to see if I could swap with a '69 inst. panel with gauges. That was a no go, the wiring on the printed circuit is different, and I think it'd be too much trouble to try and re-wire it. Right now my panel is drying in the garage after a chrome spray-paint job!

coolbus4us · 12-01-2009, 04:04 AM

I built a sub enclosure for it today, then took the family out to dinner. We get thumbs up everywhere we go in the Burb.

bill c · 12-01-2009, 04:28 AM

i looked at it, saw what i have got done and what i need to do. got nothing done today.

petey-pablo · 12-01-2009, 04:52 AM

I changed my tranny oil and filter installed new Milodon Braided Stainless Steel, Transmission Dipstick,yesterday and today monday I added oil to the tranny tried to start my truck and it wouldn't start I have timming issues So I gave up after the third attempt and started to clean up the garage alittle tomorrow is another day......

**Already Gone** · 12-01-2009, 05:00 AM

Mine is in storage for the Winter but like any other day today I thought about next spring and how I'm going to install the parts I've been gathering. I have an ECE rear gas tank to go in as well as integrated shoulder seat belt seats from a 2003 Chev truck. I want to yank the gas tank from the cab before I install the seats and that means I need to install the rear gas tank. If I take the box off the truck to install the rear tank I might as well redo the wood floor as well. Where does it end, or does it ?

fdbdw · 12-01-2009, 09:20 AM

smoked the tires for the first time, 3/4 throttle, after about the 5th time Ive recalibrated the carb, lliving at 6000' elevation sucks but I think Im getting close to having it dialed in

independentcustoms · 12-01-2009, 10:39 AM

Yesterday I drove it to the gym, helped my girl move some stuff for her work, then drove it to the shop to install and rewire a blower motor. Today I'll drive it through the snow to the gym and then off to court.

marcsRX · 12-01-2009, 11:23 AM

Ordered a set of these...

marcsRX · 12-01-2009, 11:24 AM

I need a garage heater, or else this project is going to get frozen in its tracks. Freakin cold in Chicago, and its only going to get worse.

**americanmusc1e** · 12-01-2009, 12:04 PM

drove it to college in the rain.................left some more black marks

gonna put in a new thermostat, and hook up the heater

dnd1978 · 12-01-2009, 12:16 PM

Today im at work but yesterday I put her on the road for the first time with the new 383 stroker. I think i like it. No I LOVE IT!

YouTube- 1972 C10 with 383 stroker

BAGNDRAGIT · 12-01-2009, 12:23 PM

went outside and looked at it. still waiting for 3-jaw puller in the mail so i can change timing set. probably will poke around today. maybe finish the passenger side airbag system...

chevellelover · 12-01-2009, 12:39 PM

yesterday i put new tires on it and cut my exhaust tips

**Roland** · 12-01-2009, 12:42 PM

Smeared some paint remover on the top of the cab and on the firewall. Recieved new cab corners and rockers from Classic Muscle.
