That burnt orange or copper color is just beautiful, so nice in that light.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Swapped the 64 grille for a 61 dual headlight grille.
Installed an electric fan Installed a set of 05 Tahoe bucket seats Tomorrow I am going to see if it starts and if it does, I am hoping it doesn't have any leaks and it actually runs.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
I worked on lining the door back up to the door latch after replacing the door pins and bushings last weekend.
I think it is close, it may need a little more tweaking. -W |

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Flipped a coin to see which one I would work on today. It landed on tails so it was the barn find project. Started by cleaning up the engine and start working on a breaking the engine loose.. I found an old points and rotor still in the package while I was going through this thing.
One question is the rubber floor mats appear to be original and in great shape. But there is a thin foam sheet under it. It is formed to the floor pan and it appears to be factory. It has holes in the right places. So is that factory?

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Troubleshooting a bad miss since my drive back from the Brothers Truck show last weekend. Ran a compression test and all the cylinders were within 10 psi (155-165). Since I had no idea how old the cap, rotor and plug wires were, I replaced them and the spark plugs as well. From what I can tell, seems to have solved the problem. Running like it was before the miss started. Yea!!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Oh besides getting diff parts ordered I made a deal for the engine I am building for my buddy's 56 Gm to trade even for a Copper paint job with ghost flames on my 71. Since all my body metal is new and straight it a good trade for both, won't be soon but will be goodbye to Satin black and flames.
