Re: What did you do yo your truck today??

Sounds good man...I like the look too. Is that a catback setup, or are you catless? I'm guessing it's got headers if you're running a 383.

Started working on resetting my speedometer. I also have bought DJM drop spindles, moog balljoints and tierods, a center cap, a lug nut kit, and a 3 gauge pillar pod to install next.

I cleaned the car parts out of the bed. when a vehicle sits for a long time around here it gets used for storage. Next up is a new trans, A/C recharge and a thorough cleaning.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??

painted my block, fresh from the machine shop, painted valve covers and oil pan, started a build thread here, waiting for that bag of money on the side of the road so I can order parts to re-build the engine so I can get rolling and fixing other things!

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??

Anybody know where I can find some nice extender chrome pipe pieces for my dual exhaust? Just want them to stick out maybe an inch at the most.

Gave the nasty thing a bath and vacuumed it out. Hope this weekend I'll get my 95up grille in it and then find a new bedside.

Re: What did you do yo your truck today??

Installed my hood struts and made a pattern for the sides of my trailer fenders.



Then transferred it over to some sheet metal and mocked it up for install.
