[pat 70/71]

I had a problem with fuel @ the pump chased it down to crap in the feed line (in the tank that is brand new) blew it out runs great. not going to say where this tank was purchased but you know who you are. might want to up the quality control just a tad! cheers, Pat

Managed to get all four new panels cut, and installed on the head liner of the burb. Tomorrow I plan to remove one and cut out a new one, since the gaps are to big for the bow strips and just barely hanging on.
The whole thing looks good, but I predict that I will re do another panel in the future.
Trying hard to get her looking good for the Brothers show, and not having any head liner was bugging me to much.

Hopefully she will look her best amongst so many hot looking trucks at the show.

[OhioDan]

Worked on the sound sys. Jeez there's a lot of wires? Thank god for by-focals.

1969 stepper- bolted carb down, put in the radiator, water, added gas and busted it off for the first time. Went to local parts store and bought wheel cylinders, brake hardware kits and new front and rear shoes. Going to make it road worthy.

[tys toy]

Swapped the rear and front suspension for a 5 lug disc. Going to slide the frame out tomorrow for blasting

[heymoe]

This was a few days ago but I finished part of the exhaust and mounted the cab. Today I rebuilt the bed and started to figure out how I want to mount my air tank. Let me know what you all think.

one more

[CaliBoyRoll1971]

Currently deployed but mother and Father-in-law did her up and put her in the 4th of july parade.

[07SSSC]

Washed the exterior, wiped down the interior and cleaned under hood. Took it for a quick drive, first drive in 3 weeks, running good. Gonna have to pull the engine and fix some major oil leaks though, may even put a standard pressure pump back in it, getting tired of it puking oil every time I drive it.

[btullis99]

installed a ton of parts, 4.10 gears with an eaton trutrac differential, monster transmission 700r4, and got my david boyd aluminum gas tank under the bed, plumbed, and wired. what a difference on the performance, went from a tired th350 with 2.73's to all those new goodies. it was a good 4th weekend!!

[67-72trucks]

I started wet sanding and blocking my 72 gmc cab inside and out- Painting it this weekend DBC Black base coat,PpG dc 4000 clear coat..Will post some pictures.

[1968ratrod]

put my 69 on jack stands and pulled all the wheels, its time for a full brake job

[Indyuke]

Changed the engine and rear differential oil. Mobile 1 fully synthetic.

Next is the tranny fluid and filter.

[68 TT]

Modified my square body K10 frame to make it fit the 67 cab structure better by moving the back of cab frame arch 10" rearward and cut it down in length a little to place the tires where I want them relative to the 67 body wheel arches.

The cab now sits 2" lower in the back and can align with the bed without the need for a 3" body lift as is typically done with this swap.

Just need to get the truck into my driveway where it can be leveled out then I can secure the bed in place and fabricate the cab mount brackets to fit the new cab location. Hopefully I can get that done in the next weekend or two.

After that is done I can move on to the fun part of retrofitting the more modern drivetrain and accessories then tackle the rust repair & body work.

First pic is before the frame mods, second pic is after (the bed & cab are just set in place and need to move forward a little in the second pic).

[treveiger]

Looked for trannys and info on them for hours.

[marks1972]

Did a compression check on the engine had 140-150 lbs on each cylinder except one. On number 4 I only had 130 lbs. As long as I had the spark plugs out I put new ones in. Old ones only had about a hundred miles on them but I wanted to try the accel header plugs. Made a big difrence on how close the wire boots are to the headers about a half inch.

[71tahoe]

Saturday getting ready to work on the frame and cab, I installed new tires, wheels and adjustable suspension...



...on the ghetto welding cart.
After pic with the prior wheel/tire combo next to it.

Donor vehicle.

[Hubscrub]

fixed the steering yesterday, and ordering parts today

[shopking72]

Went and got some new rear tires this morning. Went with BF Goodrich 275/60/15. I think they look a lot better. I am getting 245/60/15 for the fronts soon... They are 235/75/15 right now.

[btullis99]
