Tony's Brockway pick up is in for a facelift!

:roll:

Hello everyone. Here we go again. It has been over 4 years and a lot of fun since I made some updates to the pickup.
:idea:

Will be adding power steering power brakes and changing the fronts to disk brakes.
Body work will be repainting the roof- hood and front fenders.
:roll:

Thanks for looking, Tony

Nice to know that you will never be bored Tony!!

I don't know....What does Terry think of all the updates??? :lol:

Probably keep you out of the house anyway. Is the garage air conditioned???

Looking good anyway!!!

Another hot sunny day in Florida,

Yes Stretch shop has air conditioning and heat.
It was nice taken a short brake from the 358 to work on the Brockway pick up.
Have it all apart, big difference in changing the steering boxes picking up the shepherd box I needed the engine crane. Taking out this box only weighed about 20 pounds.
Was able to pick up all parts on eBay, :roll:

Thanks for looking, Tony

Thanks Tony. I had no idea you were running a 6 cylinder, just assumed it was a V-8. (Shoulda remembered that to assume is to make an a** out of U and ME )

Hello again, finding power steering pump bracket for a 68 Chevy 250 6cly was like finding a needle in a haystack.
Decided to take it another step further and changed out the timing case cover seal and gaskets.
Waiting for steering box too come in and new lines and hose.
Thanks for looking Tony

Hello again. It's nice to be home after two weeks.
Had power steering box waiting for me and hoses ready to put into Brockway pick up which I did today. Now that power steering is complete, I will move on to power disc brakes.
:idea:

And get back to work on 358 thanks for looking Tony

Spent all day yesterday with Brockway pick up back on the road and road test.
How good it feels to have power steering and power brakes. Now for little cleaning and polishing and put the rest of the truck back together.
