That looks so awesome... I want to copy that idea, do you mind??? I would make it a different design, but I absolutely love the barn board, and the 66 plate!!! Outstanding. I have a 66 plate on a bulkhead in my basement bar, and know where I can get more.

Installed Warn unlock hubs. Dropped the gas tank and took it to a radiator shop to be pressure tested, if it passes they'll boil it out. If not, I'll have to buy a new 1.

Installed new gas lines from the tank area to the engine. Took off the inner door panels, cleaned and greased the mechanisms. The windows ride and the doors unlatch much better.

Put in a new Optima battery.


Here is a couple pics from when we were working on the front end;

Not that is is like a major modification like most of you guys, but I had these magnetic signs and vinyl banners made up to promote my blog. I figured I could use the magnets at car shows or whatever, and I was thinking about entering the local parade next month and using the banners. I guess I could also hang them on a fence if that opportunity came up. Anway, no biggie, but I thought they turned out kinda neat ...

[mud.man.rj]

Hmmm the truck on the sign looks familar. Nice signs.

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

[McCoyAZ]

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.

[LinkbeltOE]

I saw this truck on facebook. Really nice looking.

[mud.man.rj]

It will live tomorrow and sound cool doing it too.

No i don't mind at all , thats why we look at this forum to share and get ideas , need to come up with latch for the lid. 70 mph it stands straight up! you getting this hot weather in cambridge too!!

[badriand]

Tweak the air lines a bit, received more verbal lashing from the wife about working on truck so much.

MAN!! i was sweting crazy, HOT day

I feel ya, here in east texas humidity is crazy. I have to wear long shirt when working on truck to keep sweat from hitting everything and sliding around.

198plus, i could never have a paint job that nice i would be scared to even drive it or bump it.

[Narxoleptic Customs]

Got the stepped arms mounted!! Gonna try and get the longer shackles done in the am before work so I can drive it again, it's been almost 3 weeks...
