What did you buy your truck for christmas? - Page 2 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

*HerLonghorn71* · 12-23-2004, 07:37 PM

You know those feet for on your gas pedal???Well I have one of those and Dean found me one for on my dimmer switch...It is small not very expensive but I think it is great...I got him the Factory Assembly Manual...plus a Membership to GoodGuys

bagged72blaz · 12-23-2004, 07:40 PM

I don't even have my blazer right now!

The auto transport place still hasn't picked it up in Montana and brought it to KY where I'm at now.

My motors blown, so when I get it, I'm goin to throw a cheap 350 stocker in, and build a stroker on the side.

But next thing I'm buying her is digital air ride gauge. Then tax return time 20's! Unless something crazy happens. And possibly electronic ride control.

mr402 · 12-23-2004, 07:45 PM

Bought her a nice new windshield and had her rear window tinted nice and dark.

*72longbed* · 12-23-2004, 08:00 PM

It's gonna be a surprise! My truck doesn't know it yet but I got it......... a 'NEW TRUCK'!!

Yea, it's just like my truck but has 4WD. Neither one of them know this yet, but I'm gonna put them both together in joining bays of my garage, leave the lights out, and the two are going to become one. Thats right, in a biblical kinda way!!

So we are "expecting" so to speak, that the outcome will be one shiny red K20 that listens to its parents and doesn't 'mess' on the floor.

We're all very exicited, (they are just exicited because they know that I have to do all the work), I'm exicited because I've been wanting a 72 4x4 for almost as long as I've had the 72 2wd.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to Everyone!! I'll keep you posted on the progress, I know I'm going to have plenty of questions and need lots of help with the "two becoming one" part.

JayDubBlazer · 12-23-2004, 09:53 PM

*Gee_Emm* · 12-23-2004, 10:02 PM

Got Jimmy a 200-4r today, shhh, don't tell him.

RANDY COX · 12-23-2004, 10:08 PM

Well got mine on the road and added an hei distributor and power steering.one thing I'm missing is music,I try to sing but not the same.

bagged91 · 12-23-2004, 11:31 PM

I picked my 'burban up a nice truck tilt, some weatherstripping and some misc. interior pieces. I also gave her a final "bath" for the year and two coats of pastewax yesterday as an early present. Her Birthday is in February so I think she will get some BIG presents when I get my income tax back....

Brainchild · 12-23-2004, 11:55 PM

I got mine 5 bucks in gas,and let it run till the heater got warm.and I blew the tranny in the Caravan so I could park it in the carport

Castiron9 · 12-24-2004, 12:02 AM

I guess you could say it is for Christmas......Bought it a while back just need to go out to FRANK'S-PICKMUPS and pick it up.A Posi for the Longhorn and a set of very nice hubcaps.......

Rod · 12-24-2004, 12:02 AM

There's a box under the tree that came from Santa....might be that 8 track from Lash.

draino76 · 12-24-2004, 02:52 AM

A shiny red MSD Digital 6 Plus ignition box. Should be fun to set up and play with. Never hurts to throw a little more spark to light the fire.

pat · 12-24-2004, 03:09 AM

New Edelbrock Performer heads ....and a 383 kit for a 283 block

71chevylongbed · 12-24-2004, 04:17 AM

a set of autometer sport comp guages, a new set of tires, then it thanked me by seizing up the water pump bearing and then the same day i fixed that blowing up my new tranny so it looks like the only other thing it is getting is a swift kick in the a$$ when i get it back and then it is getting sold i'll teach it to treat me like crap

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 12-24-2004, 12:10 PM

I got the old girl nothing..... Already got the heater set-up in the blazer and have spent most on my cash flow on the 69 ..... Damn nickel and dime items...

Dick Dale · 12-24-2004, 01:19 PM

I bought a water pump, fuel pump, master cylinder, alternator, and a set of free Pontiac Ralley II rims that need to be stripped and painted. Not the beat wheels but better than 4 unmatched steel wheels.

Pilgrim · 12-24-2004, 03:55 PM

Vent windows, left door regulator, repainted headliner and visors, one quart of paint in spray cans for interior matching exterior paint, vent window gaskets, rear main seal, couple tubes of RTV, carb cleaner, rust inhibitor paint for trailer hitch and front pan. Jack Daniels single barrel for easing pain when replacing regulator and sanding dash.

Happy Christmas and thanks for the information and advice received from board members!!

67ChevyRedneck · 12-25-2004, 01:51 AM

My truck was naughty this year so she ain't gettin nothin. After I rebuilt her front suspension and gave her a very "healthy" 350, she decides to blow up her tranny, well, I'm just not havin that. Faith has been a bad girl and she gets to sit next to the garage until she says she is sorry....or at least until I can afford a new tranny.... now I feel bad.... poor girl.....

vtblazer · 12-25-2004, 08:21 AM
