Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Bought a 90's F350 bench with head rests at the stadium swap and installed it today for the prefit. Very little mod to get it in, then took it Back out to have it re-upholstered on Monday.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Went and started the 70 for the first time this year. Fired up on the first try. Can't get much better than that since it went in storage in December.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Took my chassis (bare rails), engine crossmember and trailing arms to be sandblasted. Then, we fired up the sons' new sandblaster cabinet and started cleaning up some stuff so we can paint it.

IT's off a 91 chevy silverado. It fits perfect just had to drill some holes in the frame and in the fenders.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Finally found a donor truck at the salvage that I could use the pass. vent window assembly to rebuild mine with! Now i'm done with cab rubber replacement, except for front and back glass.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I took the truck of the stands, washed down the engine and cleaned the interior. I took down the sunvisors and they must of had 20 years of dust on them under all the sanding dust that got added to them. As soon as this white stuff goes away and all the darn salt on our roads it's going to get a good hosing.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Tinkered around. Put a coat of clear on my headlight, wiper knob and cigarette lighter. Replaced the driver side defrost duct and fired her up in the garage for a few minutes.
