motor looks good rick!

If you ever have your intake off, spray it with some 'eagle one etching mag cleaner' it'll clean it up nicely!

what did you paint your manifolds with?

get out and work on the truck (sorry i was givin you crap but i forgot you guys are getting drenched over there!) lol

67chevy1series · 12-25-2010, 02:56 AM

talked to a local body guy and he says that we need to cut from the body line down on the passenger bed side in front of the wheel so that is one more thing to the list

67chevy1series · 12-25-2010, 03:58 PM

yes yes i know it is a pain i am the one who sanded my door jambs by HAND!!!! THAT SUCKED @$$

67chevylongbed · 12-25-2010, 06:11 PM

Tell me about it, sanding SUCKS! But the end result is worth it

67chevy1series · 12-25-2010, 07:04 PM

67chevy1series · 12-25-2010, 07:05 PM

67chevylongbed · 12-25-2010, 07:25 PM

Cool pics! Is it raining at your place? It's been pouring here for about an hour now.

67chevy1series · 12-25-2010, 07:35 PM

it is barely even sprinkleing here

EA69TRK · 12-25-2010, 08:21 PM

Looking good Rick I keep forgetting to post in your thread but you've come a long way and body work isn't to bad I actually like doing it for some reason so if me and eric ever come to visit you I'll help out with the sanding and I'll even bring my own paint gun to play with

67chevy1series · 12-25-2010, 08:24 PM

that sounds really good! ill supply the paint

ya i am tired of seeing it just sit there and move when i push it , it is time for it to do somthing under its own power!!!!!

glad you like the build

EA69TRK · 12-25-2010, 08:26 PM

I know what you mean I would love it if mine would be able to move under its own power so I can finish the body work on the pass. side

67chevy1series · 12-25-2010, 09:03 PM

i may be skinny but i can push it with no problem so that is not a problem

oldblue1968chevy · 12-25-2010, 10:17 PM

What all do you lack on making it run/drive?

EA69TRK · 12-25-2010, 10:23 PM

Well for me since im doing a disk brake swap I need new brake lines, and a 5 lug rear, 5 lug wheels, a torque converter for my trans, wiring, drive shaft, complete front end rebuild, mc and booster, also fuel lines and thats just bare minimum if I dont do anything with the body work or the interior.

i lak the following: brake pads and calipers, brake lines , all brackets and pulleys for front of engine , power steering pump and lines, radiator hoses and clamps , spark piugs wires ,fuel lines ,transmission lines , ignition and wiring ,engine harness ,battery tray and battery ,bolts for torq converter , drive shaft and drive shaft bolts ,shift linkage , gas , registration , annnnnnd that i sit how about this being my list and i will check it off when i get a part

EA69TRK · 12-26-2010, 12:12 AM

Wow Rick I thought I still needed alot but dang I forgot who gave me this suggestion but they told me to write everything down I needed and have on a whiteboard and when I got a part I needed move it over to the other list along with a calender for that month so you can break the big project down into smaller ones like priming the truck break it up to this week sand down the cab next week prime it the go to the bed it helped me out but since I dont have a whiteboard I just have a sheet of paper thumbtacked above my desk to remind me what I still need to do. It helps alot when keeping track of parts especially if you're not 100% sure if you have it.

67chevy1series · 12-26-2010, 12:17 AM

ohh trust me i have millions of papers of lists and lists of what i needed and it has gottn smaller spike 38 just might have the e brke cables for me so thats a start

EA69TRK · 12-26-2010, 12:35 AM

Alright man one down couple hundred to go

now I'm gonna go out and try to get some work done on my truck peace out Rick

67chevy1series · 12-26-2010, 01:21 AM
