Not today, but over the weekend I swapped in this slider and rubber

Brought this home today. This is what $500 buys you in eastern Canada! Body rotten and sitting on frame, frame thin behind rear axle, good running gear though thats great I only found one in eastern Canada was a little better but not much for over double that. And my dad just brought his old one west and the frame is broken in half. |
So I tinkered around in my dads parts collection today and filled his 302 full of atf to see if I can get it unstuck. https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...60abc476d.jpeg https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...779003258.jpeg https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...d89b64341.jpeg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...33719f868.jpeg |
New 33x12.50x15 BFG KM3's. I think I have about 2" of lift, don't really know as the previous owner cobbled together some leaf springs and not clear how big the coils are up front. Plan is to get 2 inch leveling springs, 3.5 inch leafs and lose the rear factory block.

Original Equipment
Working on getting heat in my ‘74, it had the original blower motor and heater core.......... https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...82b4789e0f.png |

New ps and alt. belts.
Finished welding in passenger side floor pan. My son did the welding. Pretty good for a 14 y.o. I did the marking and cutting, hence the gap at the firewall side.:-arrgh Had to weld in some patches for the patches. When we do the drivers side I'll make sure I cut the hole smaller than the patch. Newbie mistake. On my part. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...284eacba48.jpg Finished welds on side https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...0b40369bea.jpg Patch for the patch up top. https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...88dc2fab9e.jpg Primed and ready for seam sealer |
https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...e11789e8ea.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...bcb7c968c5.jpg Finally got some paint laid down. |
Hopefully we can get the patch installed this week.

Might sound stupid but finally after doing this and that.....I installed my new glove box liner! I have a glove box again!:)
As well as I got the truck back 2 weeks ago from my body guy and mechanic (for work that I cannot do). Body guy didn't paint the inside of the doors up high enough. When I went to put the door panels on...it was like bummer! So back to paint guy. Mechanic had to do some repair work to the rear axle that he goofed up on. He stands behind his work so he took care of it. |

New paint
75 F250 Just got her painted. Big improvement from previous owners flat green/black color choice. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...f2a85079d.jpeg https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...0f170d936.jpeg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...aacc870b0.jpeg https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...f09eb9011.jpeg https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.for...2b2159ac8.jpeg |
Vacuum Canister Win
After replacing the original heater core and blower a couple of weeks ago, I wanted to get the duct controls in my factory A/C truck working. The original "soup" can was log gone from the inner fender, but when I bought the truck I found this round thing behind the seat. Using these forums, I located a digram of the vacuum line routing and I discovered one of the original lines from the firewall tucked in behind my brake booster. I bought $4 worth of vacuum line and connected it to a plugged port on the vacuum manifold behind the carb and it worked! I now have all of the controls working.
