Thread: 1972 Chevy K30 Longhorn Build

Thanks Mike, it was! We went to a great steak house called Rube's. You get to pick your steak/veggie/shrimp or scallops/ and grill them yourself on their charcoal huge grills. It was the best steak I have had in a long time. I can't wait to go back there.

Now the 72 has steering again. I'm going to have to steal the steering arm off my 76 though. The new drag link uses Chevy D60 tie rod ends which are a different taper than the dodge style. So, it's either buy a reamer at $75 or more, get a tie rod adapter bushing for $10 and drill and weld this arm, or just rob the one from my 76 for free fifty. Luckily, the 76 won't need this piece as I have the parts to put cross over steering on it. Win win. I did drive the truck around town so that is a bit satisfying.

That's kinda funny that you went out for steaks. I planed on going out for steaks and my wife said she would drive cause it was my birthday. I thought perfect, we'll go to Sioux City for steaks and then to Harbor Freight and get another 44 inch tool box cause my old Craftsman drawers are falling out. A few hours later in the afternoon I thought, how about just to Sioux Falls and then to Menards to get some things on my list for the house. A few hours later I thought, Maybe just go uptown and have a steak there. A few hours later after my shower I said, how about we just get some Caseys Pizza. At 42 the energy goes away

Kinda funny as I told my wife that for my birthday that I want to go find the biggest steak dinner in the area and eat myself sick! Just because!!


Congrats on the truck progress. Always a satisfying feeling when you get to tool around in a ride you built.
