happy to know that gas tank and sending unit are gonna get a god use' in!

Mike Bradbury · 03-06-2011, 02:52 AM

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.

ItsRandy · 03-06-2011, 02:55 AM

Moved my cab back to it's original location so I can strip and paint the back half of my frame.

67chevy1series · 03-06-2011, 03:52 AM

( my truck doesnt run yet) well today i told my truck to ''roll over there and play dead'' haha my friend pushed while i said that haha

**rakerkman** · 03-06-2011, 04:38 AM

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.

mcmlxix · 03-06-2011, 04:20 PM

quentin hill · 03-07-2011, 11:57 AM

I put this air deflector on. What do you think? It's almost ready to drive

Mike Bradbury · 03-07-2011, 12:37 PM

Same question, too.

ChevLoRay · 03-07-2011, 01:24 PM

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.

Went to the body shop and helped take the bed off .Rust removal starts next.

ItsRandy · 03-07-2011, 11:54 PM

Applied rust converter to the rear of my frame. Contimplated the rest of the project, dreaming of the day I will drive it again...soon...very soon.

NORMSCOLORADO · 03-08-2011, 12:22 AM

i finally got her out of the garage!

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

Sicklajoie · 03-08-2011, 04:38 PM

Registered it!
Got Connecticut Early American plates.
Took her out for a nice ride today.

Gene · 03-08-2011, 04:40 PM

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.

Sinister · 03-08-2011, 05:58 PM

Replaced my driver's side window regulator, which is always fun.

glider_6969 · 03-08-2011, 09:47 PM

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.

jjtackleberry · 03-08-2011, 09:50 PM

put new thermostat in, and used the Permadryplus from Fel-pro

changed oil with Castrol high mileage

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 03-08-2011, 09:53 PM

I actually worked on mine for the 1st time in 3 months...... Feels great.... Soooo I put the dual e fans in and wired them up....

butternut1972 · 03-09-2011, 12:46 AM

Sanded on the cab tonight. Juse few more days of days of sanding then off to the paint booth.

67Slider · 03-09-2011, 09:45 AM

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.
