Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Still working on media-blasting the bed parts. Finally figuring out this HFT abrasive blaster. Works well so long as you ignore the instructions.
With a 3-day weekend coming up, hoping to finish the rest of the bed.

Someday, hope to have my cab that pretty. But since it's my current daily driver, it'll be a while.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Today, I ran the last major part (the cowl) over to the media blaster for cleaning and epoxy priming and I checked my hood hinge for derusting status.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I went to see about mounting some front turn signals. Opened the hood and spent the next 15 minutes killing wasps. They made a nest above that tiny hole in the hood where it contacts the hood bumpers. Why the F*%k do wasps love these old trucks so much? I just had the hood open the other day and there were none.
Got the wasp population down and tried to work on wiring taillights. Battery almost dead and quickly got tired of laying on concrete outdoors in the 100+ temps. Eff it, I'm going back inside.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
The dash pad in my 67 was pretty cracked up so I made a cover with a $10 saddle blanket til I get a new one. Now that it's done I might leave it and use the money for some other parts.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
It rained all day today so all I have done is get hood hinge number 2 out of the ERR tank and into Evaporust and I primed hood hinge number 1 with NAPA Rust Treatment.
Once the hood hinges are done all that I will have left to clean up will be the charcoal canister bracket. |

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
Changed the air horn on my barb due to a crack and set the timing to 10* btc. Drove it around town. Been a good day with goldilocks.

Re: What did you do to your truck today? Chapter II
I figured out the easy way for now to get the back tailgate level. The bed leaned down on the driver side. I removed the two bolts from the left/back of the bed. I jacked the bed up by the rear rail. I made two shims, slip them in & bolted them back up. Game out good. Next going to get the exhaust even .
