Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I don't know why and the brought it back after moving the fuel tank in the 70's. This seat will have to stay in my truck as I need to access the jack and fire extinguisher through the panels behind it.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Got the big block in earlier this week and got the 4L80E in place yesterday. That was a little bit scary installing the 4L80E by myself with a floor jack but it's in. I stayed with the low hump even though I had bought a high hump for it. Have around 3/4" clearance at the top which I hope is enough not to bump. Hate to give up that cup holder I have bolted to the front bottom of the bench seat. Why do the pictures always turn sideways?

FYI, Your upper control arm is backwards. (On the wrong side)

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
It was 60 degrees and sunny here so I drove my truck around all day.

Got the herd out of their corrals then took the truck for a spin to the dump and gas station.

Argh! Some buddy huh? Seriously though...thank you for catching that. Well, next up, tear it down and do it right.
Thank you Acorn for that! Great spot and more than that, thank you for sending this out. I think I'll start a thread for my first time build. ![]() |

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Here is what I did this past week. Over the course of the past month, I built a custom console. Installed it just last week. I also change the steering wheel from a 1964 Impala wheel to a Grant Steering wheel.

Nice seats and console set up, blinging in the light.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Just about completed with a rebuild of my carburetor and cleanup. Getting close to startup - just waiting on a new kick down cable bracket and PVC and breather.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Took the flatbed off then dropped it off at the body man. Starting with restoring the cab forward. I need to decide if I want to keep the flatbed or find a Fleetside again. Hard finding one in Mid-Missouri worth my time

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Billy got new cab mounts today. Did the radiator support mounts when I replaced that. Not much space in the garage I’m renting. Good thing I’m skinny.

Started to pull the powerslide out of the old 67 for a 200-4R.
Curiously GM put 4 bolts on the crossmember with the top ones interesting to access. Once the new transmission is in place I can begin the joyful task of fabricating a geometry correction device for the equally Old 4G carb.
