Hows the paint matching?? Good I'll bet.
 
Well, my old truck got new studded winter tires yesterday. While some of you are parking yours, my old truck is getting ready for another cold winter...

With all the salt/sand and fluctuations in temp., I did enough shovelling last year. Not going to happen again!

researched some on the fuel cell im planning on using and looking for a electric fan set up instead of the rats nest hydraulic setup it currently has.
 
over the weekend i installed the x-metal lowering kit, installed the gauges, and finished up some odds and ends,...

today i took apart the front end b/c there is a clankin noise, i need to hunt down, and fix

i removed the intake, and TB and all the o2 senors and cut off the exhaust

its going to be another long weekend of werkin on the truck,...


i have taken notice that this is not much clearance between the rim and caliper :confused: :confused: :confused:

That price wasn't too bad, I thought it would be higher.

Roy's old P/S rack would work as long as the stock power steering hoses are used.

Installed 2inch lowering shackles from stinker. Pretty easy install, took me about 45minutes and now the truck has a nice level stance.:rock:
 
alternator and starter showed up today for the new motor. cha ching! add that to the total. do i even want to know:dontknow: probably not. just chunk the receipt in with the rest of them:D
 
Blacked out my tails and 3rd light! Need to finish, but i don't have the pads or polish.

Added red sticker pin striping to racing strips. Looks great. I'll get blue ones painted on soon to carry on the engine theme.

photo bucket isn't working, pics soon

HEY PHAT, did you lower the truck on the ground before you tightened the shackles?

Blue pin stripe and blue calipers, silver handles, shaved tailgate, and i'm removing the headlight corner lights and painting the housings gloss black.

It could pass for a Miller Lite sponsored truck by the time i'm done with it!

Eddie had 2 folks taking pics of the engine for 10 minutes 2 days ago......... I still won't take credit for it, it's all you hoss.
