Re: '69 GMC Build Thread.

well.

let's hope the man in the brown truck gets here soon.

cause i'm itching to get back on the road...i predict it'll take me a matter of a 2 hours after i get the bearing in the tranny, to get it slapped in and everything...but. then again. thats just hoping.

i'll keep you all posted. she's hitting the road again asap, dammit.

-Sam.

EDIT:

Well. the guy showed up at around 4:30. My dad got home, and we got the tranny slapped back together, then after some cursing, etc, we got the tranny stabbed in. After that, it was time to bolt up all the accessories. hah. got the starter and dust pan on, and am just figuring out the kinks in the shift plates and linkage. So, tomorrow, I'll finish that up, and get the driveshaft back in...hook up the speedo...fill with oil, and go.

Yup. Tomorrow...we hit the road again. and I am SO damn stoked.
