glad to see it worked good for you

brad_man_72 · 04-01-2008, 03:24 AM

would definatly appreciate the beauty ring. how are you planning to lower the truck and how much. hopefully the weather is nice next weekend

bobbo · 04-01-2008, 05:38 AM

For now I am going to cut the front springs and heat the rear. Going to go as low as it needs to be to look good and ride decent.But not going to get carried away.

Is that possible doing it the cheap way? Will bring the ring next weekend in the truck!

berencam · 04-01-2008, 06:20 AM

actually we forgot the mall wasnt open till 11 on sundays

bobbo · 04-01-2008, 02:29 PM

LOL! So what did ya do for 2 hours?

berencam · 04-01-2008, 07:24 PM

well i had to go down to harrison to get my dads engine hoist so we just wend down there early

bobbo · 04-06-2008, 04:45 AM

Got the exhaust done tonight. Had some used Flowmaster 40 series mufflers i took off the 82 cause they were too quiet. Sounds good on this one. Didn't run all the way back since it is only for the summer. Tomorrow morning comes the rest to get her driving and go to the meeting in the afternoon.

Sorry for the poor pics...camera didn't want to focus or I was so excited and couldn't keep my hands steady. Will get some better pics tomorrow when I finish it up as far as drivable...

kyull67 · 04-06-2008, 07:06 PM

Sweet!

FRENCHBLUE72 · 04-06-2008, 10:49 PM

Looks good congrats on the new project..

bobbo · 04-07-2008, 03:33 AM

DROVE IT TODAY!

Spent all morning buttoning up little details just to drive it. Had to replace all 3 brake hoses cause they were bad causing the brakes to lock up and stay locked. Radiator is leaking, but she drives great! Here's a pic at the CGITC meeting today with a cruise-in!

texanidiot25 · 04-07-2008, 05:08 PM

Congrats man! Glad to see it go

bobbo · 04-07-2008, 05:10 PM

Thanks! Me too!

Went and washed it this morning. More pics!

appstategrl · 04-07-2008, 09:03 PM

you washed it at a car wash with the bubble brush... SWIRL MARKS

bobbo · 04-08-2008, 07:22 AM

LOL! The paint is already bad! Just wanted to clean her up a bit. Sorry Sammy! Won't do it again! If mine looked like yours it wouldn't be at the car wash!

Spank me some more and I might be better!

bobbo · 04-15-2008, 05:53 AM

Played around a bit this morning, painting a bit under the hood and lowered her a bit...

bobbo · 04-15-2008, 05:55 AM

A few more...

berencam · 04-15-2008, 07:19 AM

cute little carb you got there

bobbo · 04-15-2008, 01:23 PM

LOL. You should get one.

Neat little Christmas tree ornament.

Custom 68 · 05-04-2008, 02:21 AM

Man Robert you have made some progress! It was good to see you today and hear about your progress. I do like the stance...

kyull67 · 09-22-2008, 01:16 PM

Since you're not doing anything with your truck, I'm going to start smoothing your cowl when I get my welding gas refilled.

bobbo · 09-23-2008, 08:15 AM

LOL. Need to get things organized with my life.

Then the truck will get going. Go to town on the cowl...at least something will be getting done.

72BlckButy · 09-23-2008, 08:27 AM

Just make sure that thing is running by next September...

Maybe I can get you a quote on those 34's....

bobbo · 09-24-2008, 07:38 AM

LOL! I want it lower, those would make it like that Marine truck!

I will definitely be in Riverside next year and should have quite a bit done by then...

bobbo · 09-24-2008, 08:07 AM

Thought I would update with a couple pics with the tailgate on it...About all I have done other than driving it.
