Re: What did you do to your truck today!
That is a cool photo! I was checking out your photos on Flickr, very nice. Look professional. Are there many c-10s in Kuwait?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Asked my 10 year old daughter if she wanted to go for a ride and she said yes. So than i had to tell my wife to get in that we were going for a test beat in the hayhauler. Lets just say the ricers did not have a chance today.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Dropped my 68' off at the body shop for touchup and final color sanding! Hopefully my last trip to the body shop..at least for the next 12 months. Always something to do!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Just got it back from having a friend put together and install a motor in trade for some work I did for him (you have to love the barter system). Didn't seem like it was running right -has a low speed miss- , so I picked up some plugs and wires. Pulling the plugs they looked brand new so I put them back in, went to change wires and found out the box only had 7 wires in it, so I cleaned up the old wires, put them back on making sure they snapped into place and took it for a drive around the block. Didn't seem to help it that much, but didn't seam to hurt it that much

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I went to the salvage yard nearby, and hunted down a kickdown for the TH475. not that I really needed it, the 454 produces plenty-o-torque, but what the heck. picked up two kickdown switches, and wiring, for $5.43!!
10 min. later, and WOW!! this is what I've been missing!! she's so much lighter on her feet.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
well this might not count cause its not a truck, but it is a 72, and a chevy. anyway i started the disc conversion on the mrs's 72 4 door chevelle malibu by taking off the driver's side drum assembly and couldn't get it loose from the upper ball joint so i ended up removing the whole upper a-arm after getting the lower ball joint loose. anyone got some tips on getting the top one out with the arm out and the spindle still attached?? i guess photos can be posted if you guys want some

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I finally took on my first real welding job, which was spot-welding in reinforcements for the large hump to cover my new tranny properly.
MIG welding rocks. To those who have always wanted to do it, get yourself one and have at it. Very fun. Cheers, Bovey |

I towed with it! I built a hidden hitch last week so I could tow my new toy around.
