Re: Steve's 64 Short-bed Project

Here is pics of how I installed a "Genie" garage door opener to my carriage doors. Works like a dream...it's very quiet and smooth even for a chain drive. https://i.postimg.cc/jdYnWBdr/New-Garage-Door-Opener-10-1-21-3.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/CxFZ7DqP/New-Garage-Door-Opener-10-1-21-4.jpg ...

Re: Steve's 64 Short-bed Project

Trying to figure out how to post a video on here. I installed a garage door opener yesterday and fabricated it to work with my carriage garage doors. There's also a really cool '64 F-100 in the video. Working on getting the video on here....

Loose Nut! It's almost always a loose nut....lol. The nut on the stud on the positive side of my coil was not tight. That took care of the stumbling problem. The last backfire blew one of my mufflers apart at a seam....that's a hard backfire! I managed to hammer it back together and get it sealed u...

I like the wheel , suits your truck perfect. Yeah...I'm try...

Not truck related...but again, it is...preparing my garage for pouring concrete. Hoping to get this done in the next few weeks...I'm tired of working on gravel.

A close friend came by today...I wasn't expecting him. He just bought this '66 F-100 Custom Cab a few weeks ago. Only 35000 miles. I grabbed my camera and shot some pics... https://i.postimg.cc/2ScHJJSq/Dallas-Sexton-66-June-2021-1.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/4xdPz5QX/Dallas-Sexton-66-June-2021-10.jpg...

Enjoying cruise-in season here in S.W. Virginia. Everyone is getting out and participating...I think that we are all tired of the (Covid) mess. Went to a local cruise-in Saturday night and even with thunderstorms in the area there was a decent turnout. Lots of Ford's and F-100's and F-150's....Ever...

Summit Racing universal booster....it rocks! Still buried under a major home renovation. Built onto the back of my home...moved the stairway to the new addition and opened up the kitchen (actually doubled the size of the kitchen). Makes my wife very, very (x10, lol) happy. Be back here soon....

Whew....not been on here in a while. Buried under a major home renovation. I've hauled quite a bit of 'materials' with my truck and today driving home from Lowes, I braked for a car that slowed and turned in front of me...heard a loud "bang" and lost brake pedal feel. I had posted on here ...
