Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
Was crusin down the freeway when I heard something and then ran over something. After coming out of the store I decided to look at the truck to try and figure out what I ran over and if there was any damage. Well I found this. Seems like I ran over it also. I think something flew up from the car in front of me. At least I have an extra. I am just happy it didn't hit my hood or grill.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
Finished passenger door for all new weatherstrip, vent window included. Drivers door is 3/4 finished. This was one of those jobs that took a boatload of time but if I was to do it again, I could literally do it in 1/4 of the time. One of them jobs u think back on and can't imagine you had so many hours in it. Oh well.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
Put my 64 GMC on a lift today and greased the front end, and also repaired an almost melted electric fuel pump wire....I don't think wires like sitting on exhaust pipes....few zip ties and That problem was solved. EDIT. Yes I replaced the wire.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
We got the bed on. Took us about 4 hours to tweak the bed and cab bolts so the lines were just right. Will rethink the next two tone.....

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
Pulled the left rear leaking wheel cylinder. Decided to do the rear pair... happy I checked, the right side was just as bad, just not leaking out the bottom of the drum yet. I'll order new ones tomorrow! It will be nice to have working brakes again. I should fix my parking brake...

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
Got to doing some minor bodywork, repaired small rust spots on passenger's door. Installed two Flowmaster Delta 44's (1960, rebuilt 350 and turbo 400....both have 430 miles on them). Getting ready to paint her in a week or two. Ordered my wide whitewalls, they should be installed this Wednesday.
