Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Oh, but the curves you get to enjoy with that long and lean beauty!:smoke:
When I finish my 70CST I will start on a C-3 for the wifey. Curvy hottie driving a curvy hottie. :smoke::smoke: But, I do agree, there is something about those low maintenance corn-feed girls that like working hard and getting dirty!:smoke: |

I'm an Old Fart, don't see real well at night any more so, the Old Dim T3 yellow headlights are gone, replaced with New Projection Headlights. Upgraded wiring harness & relays of course too.

I painted my door panels today. It was finally 70 degrees here today & no wind! Yippee ki yay!!
The before and after pics. IMO the black looks sooooo much better than that orange/red panel. The replacement arm rests will be here next week. I also replaced the window channel weather stripping (door glass felt run channel) and the fuzzies aka the scrappers or anti-rattle on the driver side door. Yahoo!! no more glass rattle when I shut the door. |

I worked on replacing the passenger side window regulator. The whole door is just about gutted. Once I get the new window regulator installed then the new window channel weather stripping (door glass felt run channel) and the fuzzies aka the scrappers or anti-rattle will be installed. Then both doors will be done. Next will be the sound deadener, jute, carpet, cab weather-stripping & new door sills - after I replace that dang leaking heater core!

Ordered a new carb, heater core, and blower motor from summit. Then placed a call to Porterbuilt for my suspension. It's going to be a long 6 weeks.

I finished installing the passenger side window regulator, the new window channel weather stripping (door glass felt run channel) and the fuzzies aka the scrappers or anti-rattle are installed. The junk yard/new window regulator works great! The window doesn't fall down now when I shut the door. And I didn't even break the glass putting it back in, kudos to me! Now I'm just waiting for the new arm rests to come in.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I tried (in vain) to see if I could get a fellow board member to part out his stepside bed so I could get his passenger side fender. Oh well, I ended up encouraging him to sell it all at once then prayed that he could.
It was cool talking with a fellow member and that made the call worthwhile. :metal: |

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
Hey Texjake, It's snowing here and I have to work outside, so not doing it right now, But I have the window channels, (whole kit & trim everything you mentioned) and rubber Vent window gaskets also complete. Any insights, tricks to make it easier or just go for the obvious?

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
today i installed the hei distributor, replaced the thermostat, and started on my 5 speed swap. i cut out the small hump and drilled holes for the high hump. i searched for a shifter, but to no luck. the shifter for the 90 nv3500 has been discontinued. so i made one myself, glad i did too because i paid a total of $0.64 for it. i had a long piece of rod laying in the garage i used.

Re: What did you do to your truck today!
I called the owner of the body/shop today that has had my truck for like 8 years and told him to get working on it, I've done this every other month for years now. I also told him that I just may have to take his butt to court if he did not get it done, or give me all my money back that I have paid him in advance and I'll find another shop to finish it. Guy offered me a deal, which I have in writing on the labor rate for helping him out $ during a hard time he was having. Hardly a deal when its taking this long. Granted though I never did put in a date of completion, and the work he is doing is the very top on notches. Money always seems to make enemies out of friends. So I guess I did at least something for my truck today!! Ha. John
