Happy two for Tuesday Nevada FTE and friends!

Jim

 

Good morning everyone!

Greg, I am glad to hear that you are up and about. And taking care of that sweet daughter of yours, what a doll!

Donna, probably for different reasons I have a big time headache this morning too. I think I am allergic to doing plumbing on Mondays. Maybe everyday.

If I can pull it together this morning I will be off the the Brewery Arts Center in Carson City. Lot's to do.

 

hello everyone. I hope everyone is having a good Tuesday morning.
I am more and more functional everyday. Still hurts when trying to get up off the couch or if I am standing for too long.
Definitely getting better though.
I went out this morning and got some truck pics and started my truck thread.
take a look HERE

 

Morning Greg, Jim, Bruce! Greg, awesome pics, thanks for sharing!

 

Greg, is that a 6' or 8' bed on it ... the side mounted spare makes me wonder !!! All in all it looks to be in good shape for a worth while project/driver truck !!!

 

8 foot bed. Excellent pics Greg.

Jim

 

thanks, glad everyone likes the pics.
can't do much in the way of working on it yet but getting a list of things to look for at the pick a part.
minor things like dome light, brake pressure light, driver's door illumination switch, oil dipstick, ash tray, and possibly speedometer

 

Too bad you aren't closer Greg, I probably have a bunch of that stuff that I may not use. This summer I'll be going through that, I'll see what you need, and I can maybe shoot some of it out to you, since I won't need it.

 

Thanks for the offer.
if you had access to the parts I could pay for shipping.
I am not sure what the pick a part will have or not have yet.
Tentative schedule is to go on Thursday.
If interested, PM me and I can send the list of what I currently need.

My radiator has arrived and a friend is going to install it for me tomorrow hopefully.
I still can't bend over a fender or rail to work on anything.

 

Okay, let me know what you find at pick-a-part. I'm hoping to get down to the U-pull-it, in Lincoln, NE, saturday, supposedly there is a 68 there with good inner fenders. Might be a mess with all the snow we've had, though.

 

at least the parts I need are inside the cab mostly.

 

That's gonna look nice all painted up Greg, what color??

 

Thanks for the bed info I think, if it was lowered a bit... that would be outstanding. If it were mine, (but it's not) ... lowered and bright Yellow ... with nice rims even where the spare is... would be one way to go ... at least for me !!! But I am just dreaming out loud LOL !!! Dave
Saw my old truck here in town today ... really didn't need that !!!

 

it's going to be black on 235/75r16
Will have to keep an OE rim for the spare because the 16's don't mount properly.

Well, just my luck, the radiator was wrong. Will be Thursday before the proper one gets here.

I know how you feel Dave. I hated to see someone else driving around in my vehicles.

 

A black truck in Vegas? You going to install aftermarket AC? Or just rough it?

Jim
