**Palf70Step** · 04-01-2007, 10:09 PM

I was on the road this weekend, but maybe I can get some stuff going on the truck again. The wife is finally back from here 3 months of training, so I should be able to get some shop time now.

pissonNOS · 04-01-2007, 10:11 PM

i started to install my airride i got the front done (on schraders) had to try and scare up some fittings which didnt go so well so hopefully next weekend i can say i finished it

72chevy327 · 04-01-2007, 10:15 PM

went to the pick your part and got a complete ignition/fuel injection system off a 92 chev half ton. planing on adding it to my 72, any ideas?

Piece of Work · 04-01-2007, 10:35 PM

Spent yesterday and today repairing rockers and cab corners. Sanded the whole truck. Next up, spraying some epoxy, probably in 2 weeks. It's not easy doing the body work and painting on a truck I drive everyday for work.

RACINJASON22 · 04-01-2007, 10:44 PM

Friday, actually got the truck out of hybernation. Saturday, did some much needed garage organizing so the truck could go back in and be able to be walked around while in there

. Also went and looked at and had given to me another 72 lwb 2wd truck with alot of good sheet metal that as you can see that I so badly neeeeed.

Sunday, today was my now 8 year old boy's B-day so it belonged to him. Next phase disassembly, going to make it feel naked for awhile, going to the frame rails hopefully by the end of next weekend. Look for a new build thread in the near future. RJ22

I didnt do jack this weekend...sliced the side of my knee open on wednesday...3 stitches inside, 10 outside. Cant bend my freakin leg for a week...what a pain...blah.

724x4a/cchevy · 04-01-2007, 11:25 PM

GREASEMONKEY72 · 04-01-2007, 11:45 PM

i cleaned out my kick panel vents, painted the cowl, painted the wiper rods and inside the cowl, painted and put in a screen, also painted the 8 350 emblems and put on a couple stickers, the red circle one on the window and the one on the door, also painted the taillight buckets white

*72CSTC5* · 04-01-2007, 11:48 PM

Just got home from the O'Reily Spring Nationals. Long day, it rained all day so the races didn't start until I think 1:30

GREASEMONKEY72 · 04-01-2007, 11:48 PM

i also took out the hoses for the window squirters and the resivor bottle and bracket

chuck1960 · 04-02-2007, 12:02 AM

Just had my fourth back surgery on 3/28/07 so have been out of commission, but monday is rocker panel removal day on my 68. It'll be slow go but seems any improvement is good therapy for me.

TONE · 04-02-2007, 12:39 AM

Got my 1967 out Friday night. Had the windshield and back glass installed on Saturday, (man, did I see the trick!) then I dinked around on it the rest of the day. Then got a call from my 1948 dad Saturday night, who said he needed help moving my 1922 grandma to her new apartment, so I put the 1967 away, and today my 1969 back is a little sore!

sjarrett71 · 04-02-2007, 01:19 AM

I drove 150 miles in my 71 Chevy 4x4 and traded it for a 72 Chevy 2wd and then drove it back home. It was like trading a log truck for a cadillac. I'm much happier now

, the 2wd is in better shape than the 4x4 was in also so it needs less work (money). I'll try to post some picks in the next couple days.

cstm68 · 04-02-2007, 01:24 AM

got some body work done shooting for primer next week !!!

SacramentoJoe · 04-02-2007, 01:45 AM

I took the family to the mountains, but the whole time I thought about a schedule for gettin-r-dun. The 1st picture was yesterday. The others are some 30-year-old pictures of my truck that I found this weekend. I am +looking for more.

GREASEMONKEY72 · 04-02-2007, 02:02 AM

awesome pictures Joe, i always love seeing old pics of these trucks

Rokcrln · 04-02-2007, 07:08 AM

Well I got some more lights up in the shop and then started on Low Buck. I installed the hidden hitch, C-Notched the frame and started on the 25gal blazer tank install. See Low buck truck build for pic's!
