Brown truck brings gifts... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 10:49 AM

Lookie what I got! It's about time. I think they'll make a huge difference. Not pictured is the adjustable fuel regulator, guage, and new water pump.

Next is 1 wire alternator, new brackets and pulleys.

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 10:50 AM

It's for this engine...

Tx Firefighter · 08-26-2003, 10:54 AM

Those look like Hooker Comp headers......

You'll love them, they fit like a glove, lots of clearance for the starter too.

*Shane* · 08-26-2003, 10:55 AM

oh how i love that Big Brown Truck!

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 11:43 AM

Yep! After way too much deliberation I finally settled on Hooker Comp. Headers. They seemed to be the best, and I wanted to get something installed that wouldn't cause me to refit a bunch of stuff.

Don't know what mufflers I'm going to go with, but we'll see.

JimKshortstep4x4 · 08-26-2003, 12:06 PM

You gotta love those Brown trucks!

smokekiki · 08-26-2003, 12:29 PM

Did he say where he is going next?I am waiting on some parts that should be here tommorow!

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 12:38 PM

I told him to drive around until he saw another 67-72 parked in front of someone else's house.

boraxman · 08-26-2003, 01:13 PM

Let me know if you want to get rid of that rug.

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 01:15 PM

???

Why?

supercheyenne · 08-26-2003, 01:23 PM

Lucky dog..... the UPS man never stops here.

Joke, but it is nice

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 02:09 PM

AHAHAHA!

I was completely confused. You got me. It figures with the stuff I've tried to sell on here that someone would get interested in the rug in the background of a picture!

I figured someone might say something when I snapped the pic, but then just tossed it out of my mind until now.

**oldiron** · 08-26-2003, 02:45 PM

Just so you don't have to worry about installing all of those parts on your truck I will be over tonight to get them for my truck. LOL
I think they would look nice on my 1 ton.

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 02:53 PM

Hands off!

*SMACK*

Yeah, I bet they would look good in that 1 ton of yours. They'd look good in any truck. That's why I got them!

:p

**1970 CST Short Wide** · 08-26-2003, 03:10 PM

I just installed one of those mini starters, Man what a differance, I like it. Looks like your in for a good week-end. Let us know how it all works out, and of course more PIC"S

crazy longhorn · 08-26-2003, 03:11 PM

Cool! you will like the fit on the headers

I have the painted comps, & am really pleased with the fit(& ground clearance on a lowered truck). Hey.....can you send the "brown truck " my way.....that dude has been a little scarce since he dropped off the Richmond overdrive!

Fleetlover · 08-26-2003, 03:41 PM

Anytime the brown truck stops here I've laid out some cash. Must be nice when they deliver gifts .

GMCjunkie · 08-26-2003, 03:46 PM

Mr. Brown Truck brings GOODIES!!

dubie · 08-26-2003, 03:48 PM

Now if only the little brown truck paid for all the goodies, it would be a perfect world

busterwivell · 08-26-2003, 03:53 PM

I love it when the Big Brown Truck pulls up in front of the office. Have had the same driver for years. Mark can tell whether it's car parts for me or stuff for the office. I'm waiting now for the front suspension kit I ordered yesterday and the door handles I ordered today.

Well, last time or 2 , there was this little blonde gal on the brown truck......somehow the bill got paid, but dont tell the wifey how!

crazyL.....dreamin again

71-longbed · 08-26-2003, 04:22 PM

what brand of mini starter is that ...how much $ if you dont mind me asking

**COBALT** · 08-26-2003, 04:33 PM

Summit's own brand. I of course wanted a chrome one, but the others were a tiny bit too expensive. I figured "what the hell", so I got Summit's. I've had pretty good luck with their namebrand stuff (part #: SUM-G1661; $199.50):

71-longbed · 08-26-2003, 05:34 PM

looks nice ...for 200 bucks imo it better last a long time and have a really good warrantee...how much lighter is it ??
