Pulled my front drums off to get turned and brake shoes replaced and tried to figure out my transmission linkage.

Well I put the carb. back on that I recivied back from Quick Fuel Tech. I checked and the previous owner had not even put a fuel filter on it yet,so thats my next thing to do before I fire up the newly rebuilt carb.

Started torching/knocking the rivets out of the rear bump-stops, and bought a piece of pipe to make a sturdy c-notch.

Worked on some more panels on Jon C's big window cab and packaged & shipped some more good, used '60-'66 Chevy truck parts.

I had about 4 hours to spare before it got dark so I dove into the rear half of the farm truck. I replaced all the rear suspension...refurbished trailing arms with new bushings, 5 lug rearend, ECE lowering springs, etc...

I'm getting older and this stuff is getting to be hard work.

Thanks Scott. I'm concerned that the rearend will sink too low when I install the bed wood. I like my stuff to have a bit of a rake, about like it sits now. If it goes too low in the rear, I will have to lower the front some more.

I have new wheels in boxes in my shop right now. I should have them installed pretty soon.

Headed to the shop to weld in some patch panels on Jon C's big back window cab. Hopefully, I can snap some better pictures tonight of our progress...oh, the anticipation!

Re: What did you do to your truck today?
 
I got my new back half ready to bed welded in after I get some weld through primer.

I'm sanding on my front fenders trying to get them done and trying to round up some friends to help pull my cab off...Not much luck with that!

Kevin:

You don't look as mean in the recent photo, as you do in your avatar! Nice work on your rig though. You do in 4 hours, what most guys do in 4 days or 4 weeks.

Charged the battery. Ordered more parts online. Pretty lame .....

Today the wind is howling and it is snowing again. My thankful thing today is ... A Corona box full of new 2009 Goodguys, Hemmings and street rod magazines made it to my house to read this winter before I pass them around to some one else.
No bad days here.
Happy thankgiving
