What have you done to your truck today?

Thanks Grubworm,
I'm sure I'll be finding this forum invaluable for parts, information, technical stuff, etc. Like I mentioned in my original post I've already found parts. Looking forward for what else I learn and discover here at FTE. Plan to be a regular participant.

Temps were finally good for a change so I went to the junkyard today. Pulled some misc. odds and ends that I had been looking for. Scored a very nice instrument trim panel. The only problem is that the faux wood trim does not match what I already have. I think I have what is called burlwood and the panel looks like what was in my Dad's '83 F250 diesel. I really only need the turn signal "arrows" out of it as mine are broken. Did not appear to difficult to pull those out and swap them over. Might just have to heat stake them in somehow. The yard only had two '80 to '86 F-series so I did not get everything on my list. Unfortunately one of the trucks was a base model and only had the black gauge cluster trim. But I only paid $20 for several odds and ends so I think I did ok.

Reinstalled the factory radio. Now we have tunes in the wood truck!!!
By the way, my daily driver is a 95 Nissan pickup. The last few weeks I have been battling a no-start problem. I went to a Nissan Enthusiasts Forum for advice and that place was horrible. I only got two replies and one of those was agreeing with the other one. Neither one was correct. Love this place, you guys are always quick with the help, even for us dummies.

Well lets see. Last weekend I went to replace my rear grease and found out that I needed new rear wheel bearings. Then went to auto parts store to order the wheel bearings and some new drums, shoes, spring and adjuster kits,and also orders a carb and turn signal switch. yesterday got around to dropping off my axles off at a shop to have the new bears pressed onto the exals( still waiting on the call to let me know they are done). Installed new carb. replaced valve cover gasket and did some body work. Today I am going to install my turn signal switch and hang new exhaust with a new super 44 searies flowmaster muffler. My work is never done but it sure is fun.
