Replaced my rear wheel cylinder a couple weeks ago and the other one started leaking. I know I know you suppose to do them together

She just back from serious cancer treatment. Down to the frame with some upgrades.

I started sanding down the bondo trying to create my shaved firewall.

Today was very productive! I was able to get my door windows installed and my new Front Air Dam. Thanks to this thread:http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=423059

It was an easy install and it only cost me $19 and a few bolts i had laying around. I bought it off Amazon. 88-98 Silverado front air dam. Works perfect!

How low is your truck? Wondering what is too low for it to work. Looks great!

I bought a CPP spring kit from a friend years ago and he told me it was a 5” kit. I believe it’s 3 in the front and 5 in the rear.

69BUCKET · 01-21-2018, 02:38 PM

ENGINE BAY ABOUT done...

Hotcorner · 01-15-2018, 07:59 PM

New wheels and tires.

PEITRUS · 01-16-2018, 12:52 AM

Towed it home. From San Jose, CA to Portland, OR. From the first owner to me, the new owner.

stevenfromtexas · 01-16-2018, 01:30 AM

installed a set of 6.5's in the kick panels and got my blue tooth set up (RetroSound Hermosa unit). very pleased!!! finished up by making the inside look like a baked tater (sound deadener)

Barnfind46 · 01-16-2018, 11:10 AM

I had to change my starter.

At least my truck decided to break down at the house!

427Carl · 01-16-2018, 05:08 PM

Love the truck .

**71CHEVYSHORTBED402** · 01-16-2018, 08:53 PM

We're pulling this Saturday for a stripped frame. Still undecided if the transmission goes with or separate. I bought a transmission jack, so either way works.

I pulled an engine once, which was this one back in 1993. My old buddy led. He had a chain hoist hung from the ceiling. Dollars to donuts the stud was unsupported.........YIKES!

ripper70 · 01-17-2018, 02:18 AM

Installed a aluminum box I made and polished to cover harness coming out of firewall

mud.man.rj · 01-17-2018, 10:46 PM

Nice clean small box, looks good, will just be a mystery box..

OregonNed · 01-17-2018, 11:01 PM

The box is cool! I like that

**Boog** · 01-17-2018, 11:34 PM

And it could be there is absolutely nothing in it at all. Just a conversation piece.
