Had to replace my radiator. A friend of mine had one laying around. Only differences are;
Drain is on opposite side and the overflow nipple points towards right side, so will have to have it turned around for overflow bottle. Has anyone used a radiator from Classic Industries? If so does if look original and how is the fit?

Put wide whitewalls on her today. Getting ready to paint her. Just picked her up a few days ago. Also waiting on my oak wood bed kit to show up. Got several other things to do to her.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Got great deal on some stuff

http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=704301

-Standard rebuilt 72' 250..0 miles!
-Muncie M20 wide? 4 speed w/ mounts for floor shifter?
-Saginaw 3 speed w/floor shifter

Engine and both trans' are clean and rebuilt/resealed

Currently SM318 in the truck
Thinking about the 4 spd (as it also has syncro 1st?)
But need shorter drive shaft(does it has to be made or is there a direct swap out?)

Hopefully engine will go in and be broken in this coming Wed!
So much rain on my days off lately :(

Finally hooked up my fuel fill. Now we will see if it works good enough to really use. I tacked it in for now.

Got my Grant adapter and Moon wheel installed then found the passenger side vent shade that was buried and got it installed too

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

I absolutely love that.

It's exactly what I have planned for mine, not in the corner at the moment.

Do you have any pics of the process and underside please?

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

I dumped 4 quarts of oil into the engine before I realized the drain plug was not in. I'm an idiot.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

It is just molded rubber gas hose. I got it at http://www.fillernecksupply.com/ther...FUiPfgod5H4IuQ It works ok. The tank won't fill all the way up but pretty close.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

been there, done that...got the ID-10-T t-shirt:dohh::hh::fry::banghead:

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

No. You were just flushing out the old oil. Good job.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Actually, it did need to be flushed. The needle valve in the carb got stuck open and dumped gas in the block.

:)

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

It has been a long day. Got the motor and trans installed and bolted down then moved on to the cab. Beginning to look like a truck again.

Looks nice. FYI, there should only be one 327 decal on the passenger side valve cover. They never put them on the drivers side.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

My original 305 V-6 had the clutch fork on the passenger side.

Re: What did you do to your truck today part III
 

Factory 62 hydraulic clutch.
