I guess I'll only be taking my truck out on cool days / nights.

Painter D · 07-13-2010, 08:59 PM

I guess I'm just getting older (30) ,sometime in the past year or so looking cool took a back seat to being comfortable. AC is definately a must for me from now on , when you work in a 100+ degree paint booth all day the last thing you're interested in is riding in hot truck.

lowdownstar · 07-14-2010, 06:51 AM

If that truck is to hot for you, send it up here to the great white north and i'll be happy to take care of it for you! I'd would be willing to send you my everyday car, it has AC.

lol

Is this with a stock 69 rear axle? I looked through the thread and didn't see any info on the axle.

D... it was great meeting you this weekend, and you have done an amazing job on your truck, it is amazing!

Better get on that A/C because I doubt the weather in MO will be as nice as it was this weekend, next year.

Here's a few pics from this weekend:

If you go to page 5 of this thread (post #109), there's a pic of the inner bedside mod we're talking about. It's not a very good pic and it's in raw form but if you look close you can kind of get an idea of what I did.
