Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?

Jacked it up and found out that it is not the rear seal that is leaking. The pan gasket is leaking in the rear.

Nice fencing!

Woody is currently up on stands but, as the weather is not the best here, think he is enjoying his rest.

Working trucks are a great thing.

Fence and ranch shots had me grinning too......

I suspect you are right about Woody taking a break from this kind of use.........

Unpacked my parts for the engine rebuild last night, made me smile.

I hope you enjoy your two days at Goodwood Paul Y.

Will text you later about motor rebuild.

Good to see this bumped back up the board.

I am still in work mode but hope to have an update in the next few weeks involving 'Race Car'.

I found the source of the electric fire smoke from the other day.
The wiring going to the fuel gauge fried!
Don't know why though.

Re: What did you do WITH your truck today?

I bought an OEM spare tire hanger for my 65 LWB stepside! I can't wait to get it and rework it for 5 lug and install.
