What did you do to YOUR bump today?

[rjewkes]

Stabbed her in the back, by putting her up for sale after asking another member if they had the parts needed to get it operational again.

sand her all down get ready for paint then ran down to this guy house he had a bumpside trailer for sale and i asked him if he had the other end of that truck he said "ill take you on the tour" he showed me his 72 f250 with all the options a/c power steering power brakes and to my amazment the fenders wont even rusted and the radiator suport wasnt either the inner fender had a small amount of rust on them but much beter than mine so i asked him how much for the whole front end except the bumper the valaence panel and the grille he said $120 im gonna pull it tomarow

then i pulled my whole nose clip off my truck it actually came off pretty esay i was shocked i cant wait till tommarow

cleaned the air filter.
By doing so, i think i lost a good few pounds of weight off the truck

[rjewkes]

Installed a new Brake booster. 74.00 had to go with a 77-upcause i have the brackets and z-bar apperatus from a 73-up F550-up. So imight just take her off the for sale list.

Didn't do a whole lot, but finally got it looking somewhat like a truck. It's only temporary. Still stripping the suspension from the dentside, then have to clean and paint ALOT of parts. AND, I got a gallon of ZeroRust in today too!

Thanks! It's been sitting untouched for the last year, so I'm not moving at a blistering pace or anything. I do have one cab mount to repair, but getting the paint for the chasis is a good start too.

painted 250 emblem and put a new reflector in it, awwww awesome. tomomorw im gonna paint the hubcaps.

[austin]

today i removed the nose clip of that 72 i was talking about and i repaired a few rust spots on it and welded the holes in for the chrome trim it looks a lot better without that ugly chrome thingy there

[FoPAR]

took it to the junk yard for a shopping spree found a ok grill and head light buckets and one plastic filler part for 50 bucks, not to bad for a grill that should clean up well. oh and a window crank handle. The junk yard truck had an A/C unit P/S and front window trim so.......

[rjewkes]

well here are the pics of the new booster.

I drove 900 miles for the second time to pick up a cab,2 inner finders and a passenge side fender.the first trip was to pick up a motor and a radiator support from the same place.It rained both trips,but when theres no junkyards with bumps in them for 60 miles of you have to travel to get what you need. i kind of feel like johnny cash building my truck one piece at a time

[SteveC]

dropped the motor onto a cememnt floor damaging the floor more than the engine

Don't feel bad. I dumped over a straight six on an engine stand once. In high school. During auto mechanics class.
