What did you do to your truck today?

[ravens65]

What did I do today? after washing the truck, I ran it against a '04 C-5 corvette. He was shocked and so was I . I thought that i'd beat him, but... It was all the raven had. I tuned it be ear ( timing & fuel/air mixture ) so maybe some dyno tuning would help, if I ever have the extra money. we both stopped up the road later and laughed about it . he said it was very loud he couldn't here his own car as we were side by side. very cool after 5 years of work. its un-real for a 45 year old truck, handles very nice too!!!

Hey man, those are '07 srx cadillac seats. I still need to hook up the elec. to them , I have the wiring diagram but.... had no luck the day that I was putting them in. ( in a hurry) guess i need to jerk one out and put it on the bench with a battery and just play around till i figure it out. two const. hots, one to ing. and one ground- that why I can't believe that it didn't work the first time . I wrapped all three hots together , maybe it won't work like that? heres a picture of the flip hood for you, still need to do the body work and paint on it. was hoping to find a steel one instead.

Finally got time to install 5 inch CCP drop springs (rear only) that I got in trade for Rally wheels for from Tony ( Thanks Tony ) now its leveled out, I still want to drop the front down maybe two....inches.

[Captainfab]

That looks good. I agree that a couple inches in the front would be even better.

[markeb01]

Up or down I really like the looks of your truck.

[62 Bowtie]

Your welcome,looks good Rich man it cleaned up nice too you know we can get the front down easily

[panelrodder81]

Washed it... for the first time in a couple months! (Daily driver). I also put some new wire looms on the spark plug wires but that was a day or two ago.

[MCCLELLAN103]

Started welding up the gas filler neck

[markeb01]

I'm not as young as I use to be, took me 3-1/2 hours to change out a leaking power steering pump. Glad that's over with.

[jr's62]

hey i have got some seats like those for my truck but mine came out of a newer model chevy truck and are cloth but they are better than what is in there right now.

Been busy, over the past 4-5 days. Driving down the street the oil psi gauge sprung a leak and shot hot oil all over my legs and hands. The PO had over torqued the fitting and ruined it so I had to replace the gauge. I installed this triple setup instead. Still fresh back from the powdercoater I finished up installing the grill, park lights, rear, and backup light bezels. Yes…………. those are step side back up lights. Still had troubles with the front turn signals so I scored a headlight switch and a pair of fleetside backup light sockets and glass lenses from the junk yard. Got all the electrical issues fixed and in working order. Also added a jumper wire so my front parklights are now running lights as well as turn signals. SWEET!
