I only made it back to Dillon, 10 hours. Woke up Thursday at 2:00 am to 6" to 8" inches of snow. Didn't get back to Reno til 3:00 pm. No fun.

Yes we got more last night and a little today. About 16” in Helena

TGIF, Brothers...

Funny, I drove this truck to the movie theater to see the original ''Star Wars'' [One then, now revised to # IV] first run.
Had to trim about 2'' off the bottom of the sunscreen to fit my vintage cab.

Good crusing shot of the truck showin the front end. No snow for us so far. Fingers crossed it skips us this year.

Did I miss Facing Forward Friday?

novaX522 · 02-02-2024, 11:16 PM

Just got her back together

**3757chevy** · 02-02-2024, 11:16 PM

I got one of those Facing Forward Friday views.

**3757chevy** · 02-02-2024, 11:21 PM

I just got this one back together. The hood is back on too, just didn't get a picture of that 'cause it was raining tonight when we set the hood on.

No more painters tape on the truck.....moving closer to getting the body work mods done.

Happy front end Friday!

Looks good.

It took some diggin' but I found my 'Burb today. Won't have it out for a couple days probably.

Front end friday and side Saturday

**68bowtie** · 03-16-2024, 01:40 AM

Nice. 2 in 1. Baby blue crew!

**'68OrangeSunshine** · 03-16-2024, 02:10 AM

Not a 67-72 but my mechanic told me to get a truck "built in this century."
A 2003 Tahoe 2WD, with a Vortec 4800 V8. [Coincidently 292 cubic inches but not an L6.]
Just getting familiar with its goofy computer quirks. Still have the '71 Jimmy and '68 Stepside.

**pjmoreland** · 03-16-2024, 02:14 AM

Nice! That Tahoe should treat you well.

That pic qualifies for Windshield Wednesday.

Although, since it's new, there's some confusion on whether it means pics looking out the windshield, or pics of the windshield.
But the World's big enough for both points of view.

Well, it's being the Merry Trickster. I had to find the Child Safe window lock to get the Door #3 window up after parking at the ADOT/MVD to get it registered yesterday. [I can re-use my '92 Subaru Legacy plates. In AZ they designate the owner not the car.]

Also a loose negative battery terminal bolt would cause blackouts at the worst times. Naturally, I haven't got a trouble kit rigged up for it yet.
And whenever I put the shifter back in Park, all the door locks unlatch. No OEM Fob, so I have to chase down each of the 6 doors to lock it up. [It's got barn doors.]

On the way home from the PO's house, the Fuel Empty light ''Gonged'' on me, and I had to feed it 22 gallons of Regular. It wouldn't take any more.
In fighter pilot slang, that's a ''Bingo'' Light. Thirsty sucker.
Takes after her greatgrandmother White Fang, the '67 K/10 Suburban with a 454.

I'm finding new gripes every day.

Guy at NAPA R&R'ed the D/S Headlamp bulb. That was easy.

But it handles good, and stops well. Something WF had trouble with.

Right..
Thought two of the same paint code 68's was worth a pic-
A fremont truck and a tarrytown
