He probably forgot where he put it.

I think the pack rat hauled off his truck.

Cuz Dennis is spending too much time with the Black Russians and the poster girls and not working on the truck!

ruffrida2005 · 04-15-2011, 12:22 AM

i think Dennis passed out.

daverod · 04-15-2011, 12:28 AM

It's that black stuff he's drinking make him go night night.

ruffrida2005 · 04-15-2011, 12:30 AM

I think he just got 5 pages from us talking in the last 20 min.

daverod · 04-15-2011, 12:34 AM

Best pages of his build.

You guys are killing me.

I got off the computer last night to watch TV. Between my wife and you guys, I've never been under so much pressure. Today is Friday. I guess I'll work on the truck. Now leave me alone.

ruffrida2005 · 04-15-2011, 01:16 PM

wheres the pics of you working? I dont think you have done anything to the truck.

66-PMD-GMC · 04-15-2011, 01:31 PM

OMG! I love the rear view of the truck on post 1407! Reminds me of my girlfriend in college.... DanG!

We're going to need pictures.

When you say "the truck" you mean your truck right? What was on TV that was so good that you had to leave? Let me guess "Dancing with the stars"

?Old reruns of "The Sopranos"?

Don't tell me it was Lawrence Welk? It was was'nt it.

It was Lawence Welk.

My god u are old.

What you talking about. I woke up got the kids to school. Went to school myself and took an exam, then came home. I'm retired too remember.

daverod · 04-15-2011, 08:21 PM

I'm not retired, just tired. Dennis is the old one. Must be nice to be retired. Nothing to do but slurp down a few Black russians and dream about what kinda dash would look good in your truck.

Makes my sleepy.

Maybe I'll watch a rerun and hit the rack.

ruffrida2005 · 04-15-2011, 11:56 PM

Well if you gave me a job and a place to stay I might come work with you!

Looks like Dennis needs help.

Maybe you could work on his truck.

Strodder · 04-16-2011, 11:05 PM

Don't make me come over there and smack you guys.

Strodder · 04-16-2011, 11:07 PM

OR I'LL GET THE COPS TO BEAT YOU UP.

daverod · 04-16-2011, 11:38 PM

I like cops

and judges and po's. They are all nice people. It's the laws I hate.I'm pretty sure if I saw you walking down a dark alley and you had that hat on I would have to let my dog bite you. God your such a goof.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 04-17-2011, 03:46 PM

Great build thread. I have a question on the door handles are they flat or do they have arch to them? Hope that makes sence..

Strodder · 04-17-2011, 03:49 PM

Thanks, They have a curve close to what the door has. I have a little trimming to do to make them a little better. That's why I haven't done the other side yet. If I'm really not happy with them, I'll just shave the doors. Your's is coming out nice too.

Strodder · 04-24-2011, 07:28 PM

I got to do some indirect work on the truck today. BTW HAPPY EASTER EVERY BODY.

I found this shopping cart that was looking for a home, so I took it in and did a make over on him. I was using a wooden engine stand with small wheels on it that was hard to push around, and couldn't work on the engine while being on it.
Here it is, and it works great. I can even change the pans on the engine and transmission.

Next is to clean the engine, and get the 1990 heads rebuilt, after I finish porting them. I'll use this engine since it was running when I took it out of the 73. When I have the extra money later I'll get the 1990 350 4 bolt mains engine bored and and rebuild that block. I just want to get thing running. By the way that is a 700r4 tranny.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 04-24-2011, 07:39 PM

I hope that thing handles that motor and tranny better than they handle a cart load full of food..
