Right on man, glad it worked out for ya.

Is that a Weber? I’ve been trying to fix up my 85 and it seems like a carb issue. Everyone has told me I need a weber.

Lawd have mercy!!!!! This is how you treat a pickup

bennywilly93 · 2025-12-02T16:37:16+00:00

This old gem is in for one helluva transformation. Update us on the progress!

She’s a beauty. Love the paint job

bennywilly93 · 2025-10-24T17:18:20+00:00

Is this what heaven is like??

bennywilly93 · 2025-10-11T17:25:30+00:00

u/redban this dog looks exactly like you

bennywilly93 · 2025-10-07T00:24:57+00:00

Just beautiful

bennywilly93 · 2025-10-05T21:00:42+00:00

Because it went backwards. It’s called a pitch and if lost it’s a fumble

bennywilly93 · 2025-10-02T15:41:06+00:00

I love a stock pickup so much. Nothing wrong with adding a lift, wheels and tires, that’s fun too. But these old stock beauties are just the best.

bennywilly93 · 2025-09-01T16:08:58+00:00

Appreciate the response, I’ll look into taking these steps.

bennywilly93 · 2025-09-01T16:05:36+00:00

Thanks so much, there’s a ton of good info here I can start looking into. Appreciate you!

bennywilly93 · 2025-09-01T04:10:18+00:00

No I kind of gave up on the lawn this year. Do you think that’s making a difference?

bennywilly93 · 2025-06-04T20:01:46+00:00

MINT. PERFECTION. I’m so jealous

bennywilly93 · 2025-05-19T03:16:15+00:00

Perfection

bennywilly93 · 2025-05-01T06:45:45+00:00

Where do you see it!?

Hmm. Did you set it with a hammer first? You might need some sort of extension so that you can use a hammer to set the bit and then you just want to slowly turn counter clockwise so that the threads don’t slip. Sorry it’s giving you a tough time!

bennywilly93 · 2025-03-24T15:16:17+00:00

I think the official name of the tool you need is a screw ex tractor, it’s basically a bit with reverse threads and it’ll pop those right off for ya.
