Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Found a scissor jack at a swap meet yesterday and slide it under the seat today. Future self road side assistance plan is well underway.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Well this was the first time I have seen my truck in about a month or two due to my kids having football nearly everyday. Thought I would snap a pic and show what it looks like at this moment.

Oh, Oh cop truck, look away. Looks cool, not a normal paint job at all, good to be different.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Pushed it out the garage and then a few hours later, back in again.
Been trying to get this job done for some time. Lights in the garage for when I start doing the body prep on the truck over winter. Up to now I had two 4 foot strip lights, but early this year, Euan "Moosevan" sent me 10 used 6 footers from a school that he had renovated. So now I have been getting on with that. I have added some strips of wood to widen the rafters and wired them in today, thanks as so many times to Mickey from next door for giving an extra hand and keeping me company. Result down the one side, the two short lights will be removed and fitted elsewhere. I am also fitting four 6 footers down the other side.

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Well I wish I could say I was keeping it that color. You can see my build thread to see the truck how it was when I got it.
It was a guys truck and he owned a barber shop called Mayberry. The truck had an Andy Griffith theme complete with siren and single light up top. Oh, it was also a stepside. While def a fun truck.....we are going a different way with this truck. |

 I never have been much of a fan of the 67-72 series, but your truck is beautifully spectacular. Both engines look fantastic, along with the big meats and deep wheels on the rear. I love the look of the open engine compartment and all the side trim. Definitely show winning material. Nice job!

What'd I do on my truck today?
(<<<< This one.) Drove it to the hunting grounds and an hour later threw a hundred and ten pounds of tasty venison in the back of it. -Brad

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
Yesterday I installed a tilt column, today I modified the cluster with a vacuum gauge and an old 60's vintage football tach.
