Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Washed and started the waxing.....
Hood and front fenders are about done but I ran out of clean waxing pads for the rear fenders and tailgate....(tommorow) Removed the rear tint and wing window tint...none on side windows? Cleaned up the motor and started making the underhood wiring look good.

Did some more work on the motor, and some wiring. She's almost ready to slip back in. Also did some interior work.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Was moving parts from the garage to the storage space in the shed yesterday and found a fist size dent in the inner fender well that I had painted about 3 weeks ago. Pounded out the dent, wet sanded and repainted. Yelled a little at wife, kids and in general but am over it now. No one would cop to dropping something on it. Life goes on!!

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Went to visit my truck at the body shop. It's been gone for 2 months now and I'm going crazy! I didn't have time to really tune it before getting it running and taking it to the shop. At 31 seconds you can hear the cam but the idle is a little slow. I pulled the PS belt off just before dropping it off. Makes for fun in tight spaces.
