Nothing happening today. Weather sucks...
We did manage to get the rear shock (yes there was only on her) removed, and pulled the track bar yesterday. Started to take the rear coils out...Broke one bolt and busted a couple of knuckles on the others. Might have to break out the blue wrench and cut off wheel for the rest.

Today I sat around the house bummed all day that it was freakin raining again!! But at least it isnt SNOW.

GMC69 · 04-10-2013, 11:13 PM

Did nothing to mine, but went to my parents to see what got dropped off today.

1972 Cheyenne with a 402bb, tack cluster, pretty stock.

My neighbor has this identical truck.

SCHRUMGMC · 04-10-2013, 11:44 PM

I've noticed so many trucks that look like Twins

GMC69 · 04-11-2013, 12:03 AM

Funny thing is that my dad still wants to buy a 1970 Mach 1 mustang again as he owned 2 of them previously. He is not into trucks, but I am. Can anyone guess where this truck might end up when he does find his mustang?

GMC69 · 04-11-2013, 12:11 AM

Well, for the previous two evenings I've been dissecting, cleaning and rebuilding the monojet carb for my truck. A sticky float turned into a complete rebuild, and I believe that its cleaner than new now!!

jmdemon55 · 04-11-2013, 09:49 AM

put the first coat of primer on the pass door. looks good in primer, will see how it blocks it out!

SCHRUMGMC · 04-11-2013, 10:31 AM

Someone told me to use a Paint Brush or Roller to Paint

Hahaha
HECK NO!!!

For Primer do I need to use a Spray Gun or just the Can ?

I wouldn't normally defend something so horrible as a roller paint job, but.....I keep seeing these people online doing it.
$50 paint job

The originator of this whole fad was a covair, and his site is down now I guess. I was looking for his link because he did the whole car and showed all the steps, it came out great.

AGAIN, not saying I would, but....

SCHRUMGMC · 04-11-2013, 02:51 PM

Yeah who knows man, here in 5 years the paint would look like crap

ekgguy · 04-11-2013, 10:09 PM

Changed the title over into my name finally after the third trip to the tax office got her registered and took her for her maiden voyage.

SCHRUMGMC · 04-11-2013, 10:13 PM

How much did it cost y'all for Title Change ?

ekgguy · 04-11-2013, 10:41 PM

All included, title change and 5 year Antique registration was $187.75. Not too bad considering my 2004 Avalanche is $87 per year.

SCHRUMGMC · 04-11-2013, 11:02 PM

WOW

$187.75 ?

I wonder what my 59 will be like

smoknbarrels · 04-12-2013, 12:56 AM

Great Job Smoke !!

Gokart Mozart · 04-12-2013, 11:42 AM

Changed the fuel filter and spark plugs. One was a little stuck and almost couldn't get it off. Torqued on it a little too much and my leg and back are flaring up.
